Minor communities improvements

Just wanted to point out a few minor modifications that have been done to Communities:

  1. The order of content/application/community/user bookmarks has been changed from "date selected descending" to "alphabetical ascending". An open request remains to make that more usable... we just thought that it made more sense to have the bookmarks listed in alphabetical order (and to have 20 of them listed at one time, instead of 10).
  2. Added a link to "About This Site" in the main community links list that can be selected from the glyph to the left of the search field as well as the site's homepage (under the Featured Content slider). This helps get you to site information and the Feedback forum easier.
  3. A new avatar icon has been created that was designed to convey community (and fits better in the presentation style on the site).
  4. When authoring a forum post in the Advanced Reply Editor, a few tips are included on the authoring page (e.g. a link to forum tips, information on attaching files to posts, and how SELECT subscribers can get help on production down situations). These existed previously, the format has been updated to make them more obvious.
  5. The "Message not found" page has been updated to be clearer in identifying possible issues and what to do next.
  6. Added the "+ New" push-button to community homepages so you can start a forum thread, etc. from the homepage instead of needing to go to each application within the respective community to start new content.
