Hi just a rather small complaint, but would it be possible to get a Preview button for when we are submitting news? I always get worried because I'm not sure if I closed all my tags (in a update I just sent off, I forgot to close a tag...) and it would just make it soo much easier to see your post before you send it off to make sure it has that high-quality polish to it :)

Thanks!

P.S. Truely sorry if this has been discussed... Point me in the right direction if the staff have made any official comment on it though :)

I think Moderators serve kinda like editors and they will check and see if it has any problems, with tags and stuff. :P

that would be a nice thing. previewing helps to reduce a lot of editing, also if you would like to see if the formatting is pleasant for the eyes a preview is a valuable tool.

Sweet, I would use it to post code and things like that.

Well, you should be able to post code beforehand. This is just so it looks good the first time and saves the editors a little bit of headache :)
