Patrick, can a button be added onto a persons profile for this. Eg: If during a thread I see Patrick478 and click on his name, his profile comes up and I could then send him a direct PM. as it is at the moment, you have to use the dropdown and select. Which is cool but can be slowish. also on that page the advertising on the bottom takes up a chunck of your screen. typing this on a 19" monitor using IE. Just a suggestion.
Ignore, found it below my "Hello Lonegunmen."
