Side nav bar removed.

You might have noticed that the right-hand side nav bar has been removed. This was done after a suggestion that it takes up too much screen space, and the menu items are available at the top of the page.
For those that don't use the forum image uploader, this change should also allow images posted from imagesuck or shitbucket to be seen in full.

Um, well, ok then... I miss it already - I used it all the time & there is just dead 'real estate' out there now
It was very handy to get back to the new & unanswered posts without having to go back to the index page. There is no way to keep all the people happy all the time

For the moment I've put a link to the search page in the footer. I'm going to get a mate to help me tweak the forum so the structure is a bit better.

I would suggest a search box + advanced option up in the top right starting from grey bar upwards

There's a link to the full search at the bottom of the page. I'll be putting it up the top when I get a chance.

If the forum starts going screwy today don't worry, I'm just trying to implement some modifications.
