The Quick Reply Box is something that is in the bottom of all the topics, it is easier for you to respond to posts, and a whole lot faster than waiting for the page to load when you click reply, especially if you have dial up. But spend 60 seconds and you can turn that on easily and not have to wait, it'll make your posts fasters.

Steps:

1. Login (duh)
2. Click the profile button on top to check your profile.
3. In your profile, click the Looks and Layout Preferences.
4. In the bottom, there should be a dropdown button saying "Use Quick Reply On Topic Display"
5. Click the dropdown list and choose "Show, on by default" you can choose "show off by default" but then u'll have to click the button for it to appear.
6. There you have it. The quick reply box on the topics to make your replies a lot easier. Installed mod came with SMF 1.1 RC3. I will try to put the quick reply button in along with the reply when i get the chance.

If you have any questions or concerns, please ask them. We'll be happy to answer you. Enjoy!

well i have 3 other skins installed right now, the only reason i dont let others pick is because they wont have the mods installed because i didnt configure those files to match with this one, it will take me a while to get the new skin up because i have to fix it so mods will work with it

Yeah, it's real easy to reply with the QRB, not like the olden days when you'd have to go in the topic, click "REPLY" and wait for the thing to load in.
