@Cyberdemon: Ok, I just typed in ‘Design Forum’ into Google and these are the 1st sites that I got back:
http://www.productdesignforums.com
All of them open external links externally. What I mean by external links are shown throughout the posts (websites, external sites etc): http://www.designerstalk.com/forums/web-design/60563-bloody-useful.html
It’s not a big deal, but it is a nicer way to do it, purely because after you view a link, you want to easily go back to the original discussion.
