A Women's RV Forum run by Women RVer's!

Hi there,
My name is Shelly. I am 51 yoa and am finally going to be getting back into the outdoors! My partner is not much of a camper, so she said if we were going to do this, there would be no tents and sleeping on the ground.....so last Friday we bought a new Serento V-6 and then went looking at a trailer. We found just the right one! Perfect for us! But.....we have to wait until the first if the year before we can purchase it. You know those pesky bills have to get paid first....dang it! But, that gives us time to get all of our duck in a row and not rush anything. This August I am going tent camping by myself in Zion NP. And yes, Ellen will not be joining me....she is going back east to her families and eat crab. That's fine cause I will be cooking over and open fire everyday!!! We are both lucky!
Any way, I am glad to be apart do this group. I look forward to seeing what all of this brings!

Happy camping!

Shelly

Here's your first Texas welcome, Shelly. You'll get more; there are lots of us in Texas. I'm pretty new here and really enjoy this forum. Glad you found it.

Welcome to the forum. We take any sort of campers and want to be campers and dreamers..... hope you get out and about and explore the world as soon as you can...any way you can.

Welcome <------imagine my hand up there waving too

Oh by the way, I live out here in Las Vegas. There are a few places out in my neck of the woods to camp. But I prefer the trees to the desert. Thank you for the nice welcome! This is going to be fun. Oh and can someone tell me why I can't add my avatar?
Thanks!

What have you tried that isn't working?

I went into edit avatar, and I've got nothing. Should I be somewhere else?

LOL - i pretty much figured (and hoped) that's where you were trying to add your avatar!! I was hoping to get an idea of what you might have been trying so I could steer you in another direction that might work.

When you put in your "link" offsite, it cannot have the IMG codes. It should only have the external link (starting with the http:// stuff).

Hey thanks Mitch5252, but you might as well be speaking a foreign language! LOL!!!!!! I will try and figure it out. But in the mean time, I have short red hair, and I am 5'8". LOL!!! let your imagination run.....still LOL!!

A big Texas welcome to you and Ellen. To put pictures on the forum you need to put your stuff on Photobucket first. Go to the technical thread and search for avatar. Mitch forgets that the rest of us don't speak "techy" very well and she needs to lead us with small words and short sentences.

That's why I asked my original question - to try and get an idea of Shelly's computer "experience".

ON EDIT: Remember - I'm the one who posts screen shots with arrows when needed...

Welcome Shelly. There are complete instructions on pictures including avatars in the maintenance tech room where some of us have tried to guide people and Mitch does pictures and everything. But as she said, it's really hard to answer a question when we don't know where you're having the problem. Like, to start with, where is the picture? What size is it? What have you tried? But preferably take this to that other forum and people will help you figure it out.

You guys crack me up! The maintenance room you say? Well, then I am off to find said maintenance room. Wish me luck....I am goin' in.......

I am pretty good at figuring things out on the computer, but I can't find the maintenance room.... I am doing this on my I pad, could that be the problem? I feel like a dope. You girls have probably gone to bed by now, so I will continue.....

..
Shelly, go back to BOARD INDEX and scroll down (about 1/3 of the way) until you see MAINTENANCE/TECH ISSUES. Instructions are in there. But come back here if you don't find what you need.
