Hey,
Sometimes I'm reading and come across a Scripture reference that I want to check out. I've added a quick tool above the forum called "Verse Tool". If you click "show" it will expand a form for entering verse references like John 3:16 or verse ranges like Genesis 1:1-3. You can also use short names such as 1j 1:9 (1 John 1:9) if you are a lazy typer like me.
Right now it defaults to NASB, but I'll add the option for multiple translations shortly because I know many of you are particular about the translation you use
Thanks,
Jarrod

Darin,
That's a great idea... I need to look for a mobile css and then update the code to look for a mobile device. I'm working on a couple of other ideas right now also for expanding the site, but I'll definitely add that to the list. I am also thinking of changing the theme? This is the default layout/colors... what do you think?

If you update this would it recognize a Blackberry as well? After adjusting the Browser config on my Blackberry I was able to get a pretty good layout of the website. I often read the posts on my Blackberry (like in the hospital waiting room this morning

), so if you can make it even more user friendly that would be great!

Not really crazy about the default layout, but I believe phpBB allows users to set their own if several are installed to choose from. It'd be hard to please everyone, of course.
