Brilliant, cheers Bruce!
 
Along the Ajax lines...this topic was at 3 stars, so I voted it 5, which said the average was now 4 stars.  However, I had to refresh the page to see the stars change at the top - any chance these could change as you click the vote button?

It doesn't because of the location of the rating displayed on the page and that the AJAX is already updating another area.

Instead when you click the 'Vote' button the drop down is updated to inform you that either your vote is accepted or you have already voted before and displays the new rating.

If there is time it will be looked at, as it's one of those annoying things that seems simple but will take the best part of a day getting it just right and working in all browsers.

The way you rate a Topic has been updated to look more pleasing on the eye, by loosing the radio buttons and 'Vote' button and instead uses a series of star images updated using javascript as you mouse over your choice.

Due to IE 6 and below not supporting PNG images the feature doesn't look as nice in IE 6 and below, and instead looses some of the images and has GIF's instead for those images it does have. For everyone else using IE7, Firefox, Safari, Opera, etc. you will see the feature in all it's glory.

Sorry if I missed something but why does the star graphic do the opposite of the group icon...
 
...the gold stars are on the right instead of progressing from 1-5 from the left...I'm sure this is not an accident but I'd love to understand it as its unintuitive to me.

Really it needs two sets of icons, the reason for the stars being on the right is because of were they are displayed in the page displaying the topics where they are displayed on the right hand side.
