I attempted to fix it. This might break a other things (I hope not). Let me know if it works or not.

Referring back to the 10 Sep exchange between Profman and Amrad regarding where to find the Topic and Post (sdt= and sdp=) numbers, I am having a problem using sdp=.

Following Amrad's guidance, the URL to his post is (note: line is broken so as to post fully):
http: //sillydog.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=16601&p=101596&hilit=sdt#p101596

If I use sdt=16601, I properly get the first post in the thread: thus.
When I use sdp=101596, I get the first post on that page (page 2), not his post: thus.
If I try sdp=p101596, I get [sdp=p101596]this[/sdp] (no code expansion).

Using the full URL does point me to the post of interest.
What am I doing incorrectly in trying to use the sdp= notation?
Or must one use a URL= to refer to a specific post?

Thank you for reporting the issue. I will look into this issue.

Okay, I've been playing with with some CSS3, and removing a few images tricks (e.g. used for rounded corner) that came with the template.

Might use some interesting typefaces.

Any chance you could set Segoe UI as the default font on forum and topic titles for us Windows users?

Thank you for font suggestion. Currently, there's no OS detecting for Style Sheet.

I guess most users' browser are modern enough to use some less-boring fonts.

Well, the cost? There's an additional 62kb to 98kb (depending on the browser) download for two webfonts. I believe those fonts would be cached and you don't need to re-download each time visiting here.

IE 8 on Windows displays the webfont, but does not display them well. (I don't have IE 9 or 10 yet, I am poor.)

What does that have to do with anything? You have Windows 7. IE9 is a free download for Vista and 7 users.

I shouldn't feel bad about embedding fonts (webfont) for SillyDog701 Message Centre. I just noticed that Mozilla.org also has embedded font, except their embedded font only works for very selected browsers.

At least SillyDog701 is more open in webfont aspect than Mozilla. :D

Simple. Here it goes.
Although I have Windows 7, but I don't have enough resources (RAM, CPU etc) to run IE 9 (or IE 10) efficiently.
And I don't have enough resources part justifies Antony is poor.
