A debate on where to place a link back to the main TresCom site has been going on for 2 pages. Let's settle this once and for all.

No, link it back to the forums. I think I've said enough why...

On top of that, all phpBB2 forums link back when you click the logo.
Why should this one be an exception? Could be confusing...

At least make it say Forums on it if you do link it back to the forums index, then add a link to TresCom in the listing on the upper right.

But why should it have to Say Trescom Forum?
It clear it is for the forum...
It always was... I don't know what the big deal is...
Just put it back how it was...
This is getting stupid...

Because the forums are only a section of the whole site. It's not as if the forums were the only thing that existed.

AND they are called "TresCom Forums".

I do recall some requests in the past on making the top button link to TresCom.org.

Whether we agree on having it there, or as a while link on the right, linking back to TresCom is a good idea. Indeed, the forums are not the only thing we have to offer. It's about time TresCom.org got reintegrated into the community! If it were easier to link there from the forums, maybe the website wouldn't be neglected so much ...

I'd say a white link on the right is the best way to go, since a lot of people seem frustrated by this change. Then again, some people were frustrated when the new forum design showed up. Change will do that ...

Well, habits are hard to break...so the TresCom image has been returned to its original link, and I've replaced the "Chat" text-line with the "Return ot TresCom Homepage."

Just trying to make everyone happy. :)
