I'll firstly admit that I haven't read all the 
documentation on how to use this entire site, so 
maybe I'm missing the point, but...&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
When a logged-in user is given a certain number of 
votes, they are provided with a radio button selection 
for either &lt;B&gt;+&lt;/B&gt; or &lt;B&gt;-&lt;/B&gt;. I find this to be a 
problem in a few respects:  firstly, I would really 
like to see the reputation which that post already has, 
and THEN determine whether or not that post has been 
given sufficient reputation (IMHO) so I might add/subtract
if I wish to do so.  In addition, perhaps there can be a
neutral "no-vote" button (CHECKED by default) between the &lt;B&gt;+&lt;/B&gt; and &lt;B&gt;-&lt;/B&gt;
radio buttons, so if I click a &lt;B&gt;+&lt;/B&gt; or &lt;B&gt;-&lt;/B&gt; modifier
but then decide that I don't wish to modify the reputation
of that post, I can simply choose the "no-vote" choice.  This way, 
I can submit my votes for other posts on the same page w/o 
altering those I do not wish to alter.&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;BR&gt;
And btw... is it possible to allow logged-in users to choose
the size of their TEXTAREA box (such as the one I'm typing in)?  That would be pretty cool.&lt;BR&gt;
