Spoiler tags
Following up Moon "God" Tricky's request, a simpler way to deal with ZOMG SPOILERS!!~!1! might be to enable spoiler tags, like so:

[spoiler]Rosebud is a sled[/spoiler]

except with proper HTML tags, not BBCode.

In forums which have enabled this, the text is concealed in a box, and if you want to read it you click on the box. I like it very much.

A way of hiding threads without logging in
When I'm at work, the only way I can see b3ta is to go through www3.barnesy.org - this means that I am unable to actually stay logged in. I need to log in every time I need to post a message, and then I can't edit it etc.

Is there a way I can hide a thread which might be of a giant magenta cock or a lady in a bikini? I don't really care about these things when I'm at home (and have the ability to hide threads) but when I'm at work I have to leave for an extended period whenever there's something like that on the board.

Auto-hat feature for /board
Where you specify the URL of your hat image and it automatically adds it to the bottom of your /board posts

"Private" thread branches.
Sometimes we want to talk about books and films, involving ZOMG SPOILERS other people might not want to see. How about being able to make a post "private" so that you don't see its replies unless you explicitly look at that post? It wouldn't be difficult to do as you can essentially already do it just by deleting a post and posting a link to it. So how about adding it as an explicit feature? Just add a tick-box on the message posting/editing page "Make this thread private".

Maybe "private" isn't the right word as everyone will be able to see it, they just won't have to if they don't want to. But I can't think of another word.

Also it would be nice if it didn't take you back to the main board every time you reply from a specific post's own page.

See how many clicks your image got.
So what feedback you got instead of having to filter out the crap that people post that has nothing to do with the topic.

Ignore button on Image Challenge pages
I think the continued existence of DOCTOR DYSLEXIA indicates a dire need for an Ignore button on the Image challenge pages. Not one, but TWO huge blobs of TOAP. That don't even make sense. For the love of Jesus, make it stop.

The Latest page for Bugs and Features is not showing the latest posts.
It's showing a post I made on 23rd June as the latest - b3ta.com/questions/bugs_and_feature_requests/post83030/.
I don't know if everbody else is OK but that's what I'm seeing.

EDIT : now I've posted this it's showing b3ta.com/questions/bugs_and_feature_requests/post83692/
from Paster of Muppets 30th June!

Edit : Yay! Fixed!

How about a "hide compo entries" option?
Some competitions elicit far too many crap entries, which swamp the board and push off some excellent work, so it should be possible to allow an option to not see compo entries. After all, you can always click the Image Challenge link if you want to see them.

I don't know about anybody else, but working for several hours on something only to see it shoved off the board in a couple of minutes by an avalanche of "Text On A Picture" images is really annoying/disheartening.

Compo posts listed separately?
I don't mean from the main board, i mean on your profile.

also, haw about a "last logged on" on the profile too?

Get rid of the "popular" view
On the image challenge pages.

As most people view this, and the ones near the top snowball votes, where a lot of great ones further down the chain get overlooked.

Plus, not knowing what's winning might add a bit of excitement to the game.

It sounds to me like an ultimatum where it says "Update your profile or Logout"

Often I want to do neither, perhaps this could be re-worded? (Although it makes me chuckle as it is)

In the list of people attending events
replace any spaces in peoples usernames with &nbsp; so that usernames don't get broken over the ends of lines and are easier to read.

After posting a link
you are returned to your link on it's own, rather than the links board (it was from the preview page, if that makes any difference?). This is not consistent with the other boards.

There are a lot of talented peeps on here and it would be nice if they had a place where they could share their knowledge. Please start a tutorials section where us mere plebs can also begin to learn the wonders of photoshoppery, the expert way.

Please an we have a "see all front pages" link
in the profiles (like the "see all their answers" for the QOTW) so we can see all the FP's of gifted people like Sheep! and Monkeon?

cheers!

'I don't like this'
While I know you are all very positive people, it would be nice to have an 'I don't like this' button for when an entry is so truly awful you cannot express your feelings in words.

/board never finishes loading
the throbber (FF loading icon) is constantly in action, with "transferring data from www.google-analytics.com" in the status bar. Please fix as it's bloody annoying.

edit: either it's been fixed, or it's just stopped doing it. Happy now :)

QOTW Vote-o-Meter
Can we have a QOTW vote-o-meter?

Specifically for when we all get bored of it or it's not that enteretaining - it can be as simple as an alternative to "I like this".

When it gets so many hits, the QOTW is closed and a new one opened.....

And don't call me Shirley
