Put email and password windows ABOVE web images and email windows. Mostly persons post without web images and web links. Its a waste of motion and time to have to scroll past web images and web links, when I'm not using them.

Might be a good point.
In addition to the scrolling issue, another problem is confusion between all the little boxes, as they are of the same size.
How about: an unlimited number of web images and links ? The larger boxes would ease the problem of confusion, while moving the signature boxes above them would eliminate the scrolling nuisance.
Otherwise, the previous improvements are a delight -- aren't they ?

Whilst I think there could be more web image boxes (maybe a drop down, or an 'upload more images' button ?) I think it seems logical to 'sign off' a post at the end

OK, if you want my opinion
I use this forum as much as I use the Both Sides Now stereo music forum.
On that forum, I have to put in my email and password to get into the forum. What's cool about that is I can read and post freely without having to put in my email and password each time.

Inputting your
Inputting your password and email address is necessary to protect the 'edit' feature
Otherwise anybody could edit another's post..
Just imagine the trouble that could cause ! 😉

Typical
phBB boards I use don't require registered users to sign in each time they visit or post. Editing is offered to each poster for his posts only, and deleting is offered only before another post is added to that thread. In one case, where editing was added only after several years, the political threads are still not editable. Date, time, and number of edits are displayed for each edited post.
Each board's owner/administrator can decide which options to include. Users are expected to abide by rules, and respect the wishes of his or her host. Makes sense to me. After all, it's a cost-free service -- to the users. Maintenance and changes are not cost-free to the owner.
