Susan,
I don't know if polls rating the mods will be standard, but after voting in the one about the tilt out mod, I realized I should have voted the other way. I was rating my opinion of the concept of tilt outs, not on the quality of that specific mod or mod article.

If polls will be standard, maybe there should be separate polls rating the idea and the implementation as distinct things?

Hey Woodswell! Thanks for the feedback! I think we had planned (and I thought we'd already done it) to remove the ratings from the articles and tutorials. I'll check into it!

I found the article system easy to use, but it did seem to have a few glitches. I clicked on the "wrap (floatleft)" icon while typing the article, but the words in the finished article aren't wrapped around the photos.

Also, my thumbnail picture is 100x100, and it shows up on the first page of the article, but not as a thumbnail next to the title on the page where all the articles are listed like everyone else's. It just has a little yellow dot. What did I do wrong?

Hi Jen! Thanks for the feedback. I'll look into the issue with the thumbnail image. As for the float - the best way to use that is to select the photo (click on it) and then click on the floatleft or floatright button. One tricky bit is that there needs to be enough text around the photo for it to actually wrap, or you get a funky stair step effect.

We're working towards revamping the Library overall, and providing better navigation. The FAQs regarding the site are now linked at the bottom of each page, and soon all the articles, tutorials, Before and Afters, Finished Projects, Yes, It's IKEA and IKEA related FAQs will be combined into an Articles section (Library will be eliminated). New navigation will make it easier to find what you're looking for, and with continued input from folks using the Article system, I hope to be able to refine the article-writing system to make it as simple as possible and to provide instruction in areas that require it. Unfortunately, I'm too close to it to see the faults and I need you guys to point them out!!

Again, thanks for the feedback - keep it coming folks!
