Many days, I don't login - and now I have to login every single day to not to miss a member's birthday here in this FORUM.

This is not good at all.
That is a privacy feature and cannot be changed. In many cases, people would not appreciate their birthday being shown to anyone who happens to stop by a website. That said, I'm not sure why you would not want to log in, to be honest, when visiting. I mean, to do anything like wish them a happy birthday here, you'd have to log in anyway.

I have figured out how to add the Active Topics link back to the toolbar. It will appear at the top of every page without having to drill down into a menu now. Anything else? I don't want to add too many because it will disrupt the intent of their design, which is to make the forum scale nicely to all screen sizes, including phones and tablets. But I will add more if everyone feels it enhances their experience.

On a related note, that feature is why the picture at the top no longer repeats across the top. It scales down in smaller windows and does not appear at all in very small (mobile) size.
