Here's another feature I've just discovered...
When you notice a paperclip to the left of a thread's title, if you hold your mouse over it, it tells you how many attachments are in that particular thread. If you click on it, a new window opens up containing a list of the attachments. You can then click on whichever attachment you'd like to view.
An oldie but a goodie...
When you're in a particular forum, to the right of the "Topic Title" heading is a column entitled, "Replies". If you click on the number of replies for a particular thread, you can see who responded to it and how many times.

Oh! I'm on a roll! Yet another feature I've just discovered...
When you're viewing a thread title that has multiple pages, you'll notice a white square offset on top of another square to the immediate right of the topic title, just before the white squares containing page numbers. If you hold your mouse over these first two squares, the message that appears is "multipage jump". If you click on this, you have an option to specify which page exactly you'd like to go to. Handy for a 26 page thread!

And another...
If you want to quote 2 or more people from different posts in your reply, hit the "Quote" button for the first post. You'll notice the + sign turns into a - and the button turns red.
Scroll down to your second post and hit the "Quote" button again. Once again, you'll see the + turn to a - and the button turning red.
Now, hit the "Add Reply" at the bottom of your screen. You'll now be taken to the page that allows you to enter your reply. Notice how both quotes appear in your reply box?
The nice thing about quoting this way, rather than cutting and pasting in a second quote as I used to do, is that when others are viewing your response with more than one quote, if they click on the red arrows seen in all quotes, they're taken back to the original post.
Also, you can even add from other forums this way.
