I'd like to post a suggestion to the forum.
I'm not sure if it is possible, and wheter it would be easy or not.
The thing is that I've been on forums that have a breadcrumb above (as here) but also below on the forum (which is not here).
This would be handier as often you tend to read the last (and thus lowest) post on the forum and don't have to scroll the entire way up to use the breadcrumb.
just a suggestion.
What's a breadcrumb?
Named after the crumbs Hansel and Gretel left behind to find their way back home it is used on site for thesame. It's the line on the top that says "Gaming Outpost Discussions » Gaming Outpost Talk"
If you are not in the reply window, [Ctrl]+[Home] will take you to the top of the page without scrolling. ([Ctrl]+[End] will take you to the bottom of the page where the reply window is.)
I'm sure Aaron will mention this on the forum design forum (our hosts tried their hand at forum software design in the past, and have since decided that they are better off using software developed by others and applying their talents elsewhere), but meanwhile this is a good workaround.
Hope that helps.

sure will, thanks!
There shouldn't be much trouble adding a breadcrumb to the bottom of the page. I've generally been holding off on making changes to the templates as the forum software is still in a beta state. Version 1.0 is due out soon (go to bbpress.org/blog to get updates on where they're at) and then I won't have to worry so much about overriding changes with updates.
Thanks very much, it's only a suggestion, so there's no pressure :)
