As I develop plans to integrate Snitz with my site more and more, I find I make little tweaks here and there.

Now, I don't use just one level, but I noticed many do. Even though I don't, I still don't like to have things with duplicate names.

My suggestion is to rename faq.asp to forum_faq.asp after I've visited a lot of Snitz sites and noticed many have separate faqs for the site and the forums.

Just a thought.

Well, you could also change the site's faq to site_faq.asp .

Actually, I am probably going to prefix it with something too I'm trying to make sure everything's easy to spot on first glance.
Just thought it could help for organization, we could prefix some generic file names with forum_ or forums_ or something distinct.

this brings up the question of mine, why is pop_profile.asp prefixed with "pop" since it really doesn't pop?

With v4, file naming is a more important concept because filenames are used as part of string variable names. If you rename a file, you may end up with renaming 100 variables throughout the code and some 20-30 language files. Also the files will not be compatible with each other. Just a caution on site effects...

I encountered a similar issue on CSS, where I used "sf2k" as a prefix to all definitions.

Pop_profile has the ability to pop if it is not heavy ...

Stop the WAR!

if you look in the code, you will find that it does under certain circumstances

I see your point... (I guess canpop_profile.asp would sound stupid)
