Post Preview & Printing

I absolutely hate the fact that I cannot "preview" my posts before they are posted. It isn't easy to proofread in the tiny edit box provided for text entry. Instead, it would be nice to have a "preview" button next to "submit" and "cancel" so that I can optionally view my post as it will appear and edit accordingly. I hate leaving typos in my writing, but sometimes I do just because it isn't worth the hastle of going through the edit procedure and having that little "edited by" stamp appearing on everything.

My second suggestion is that there be a way to make stuff "printable". Once in a while there are some very worthy threads. But the stuff at the top and left-side of the page makes it tough to make a hard copy...and worse if the thread is multiple pages long. A button that produces a print friendly version of a whole thread (no matter how long) would be wonderful.

Cheers!

    Here, here.

    Both are genius suggestions.

    And both should be made available to members.

    Great ideas! You're right--it is a hassle to print copy and it is difficult to proofread "inside the box."
