I think this message board would be if the "Featured Discussions" table would be smaller or moved at the bottom. I think it annoys people to have to scroll down to reach their desired forum.
Just a thought.

Suggestion: Featured Discussion Table
I'd like the option to either minimise or maximise it myself!
If any important updates aoccur maybe theres a way to have it open even if minimised for one time only?

Yes, or if it is minimised and something important comes up, maybe add a little
-sign?

Just reducing the no of topics from 5 to 3 would be a lot better. 5 topics is way too much, since we dont update them every now & then.

I'm going to try to update them more often. Also redesign the whole index page as soon as possible.
What I could do is make an option to remove all featured discussions before a certain date/discussion. So only new discussions would be displayed. (quite hard to code)

I didn't wanted to mention it yet but i've started working on an index page for frihost. I'm trying to make it simple and sober .May be you can hold you redesigning for few days, just in case you might like mine.

Mine won't be for the next few days. By the way, it wasn't really the design, more the coding (links, ...) and the ads.
Eh, it's nice to see the admin hearing out my suggestion. You people are fast here.
Yeah, what mathiaus said. Also, maybe the five featured topics won't be much of a bother if they are in small fonts.

For Bondings to implement this.
He'll have to modify it for collasping the featured discussions
.
OPEN index_body.tpl
FIND
REPLACE WITH
OPEN overall_header.tpl
FIND
</script>
<!-- END switch_enable_pm_popup -->
BEFORE, ADD
END

I don't want to hide them completely. I will only make an option to hide discussions before a certain date (already viewed).
The thing I gave you isn't for hiding them 
.
It'll open all at first. The user clicks on the cat name, the category will be hidden. He clicks on the, it's open again.
