From now on, you will be able to rate topics according to "one star," "two star," etc; the maximum rating being five stars. To rate a topic, look near the title for "Rating." Click on that and you'll be taken to a pop-up screen where you can rate the topic.

The way this is right now is not the way that it'll stay. Currently, the stars look kinda wimpy, and I much rather have a pulldown box than a pop-up window. So it will change, but it'll definitely work fine for now. Once my internet starts running fast again, I'll mess around with it some.

Just looked into making it a dropdown box, and that's not going to work. The problem is that it'd dramatically slow down loading time for topics as the code for rating a topic would be loaded each time, even if you already rated or don't want to rate.

However, I'm still going to replace those wimpy stars, and I'll also improve the pop-up window.
