    ... which has probably been suggested before.
    But would it be possible to have a preview button beside the submit button so you can read over your posts? Considering this months Post of the Month I think it might be welcomed by a lot of people.

    Well I thought it was a good idea.

    you could just read the text that you've just written.
    i mean its not as if theres major formatting to be added to posts to make it legible.

    An idea is an idea, and yea gota respect that.
    But IMHO I think that having to preview your pot before you submit would be annoying :/

    Agreed, it seems like a pointless extra step that needs to be taken. Surely you'll have some idea what it'll look like- apart from images, it's not all that different from what you enter in the text box.

    You wouldn't have to preview if you didn't want to. I'm for every seeing silly mistakes after I post or when I come back some time later. The different background does make a difference. Just seemed that it would be handy for me, and maybe a few others.

    i think it's a sound idea. you could maybe add an extra button, so not to have it on automatically.
