A couple things to try

By default, user information (avatar, city, state, country, etc,) is displayed to the left of each post when you are viewing a thread.

If you want to try something different, there is an option in your "Preferences" (under the "My Stuff" menu) that is titled "Post Layout" By default is says "User info on side". But for a different look, try setting that to "Use info on top" then see how the posts look in a thread - all the user info will be above their posts instead of on the left side. It's probably not for everyone, but some of you might find it a nice change of pace.

ALSO. By default, the "My Stuff" menu is a drop-down, where you select messages (PMs), or "Profile" or "Preferences" etc., off the drop down menu. But in your Preferences, there is an option that asks "Do you wish to have "My Stuff" menu as a left navigation menu". Try saying yes to that option. Then leave preferences and not that the "My Stuff" menu is no longer a drop down. Instead, if you click My Stuff, you automatically get all your PMs listed, but the other "My Stuff" options will appear in a menu on the left of your PMs.

Just a couple little things you might want to try out when you're bored.
 
Basil, I am never bored when I am on here.
 
hmmmmmm...I'm thinking Basil's not out in the garage working on his engine!
 
Seems Basil needs a bit more car time.
