This great new Forum!

Well, I guess I've explored around enough to get comfy here,... what a lot of nice features this forum has. I especially like how you can zip right to the first new post on a thread .... makes it easy to catch up every time you get here.

Posting pictures seems to be a lot easier,... but maybe that's just me.

I'm so thankful for Bethers and her expertise in setting this up. It seems to be a great format and I sure do love it!

To get to the new posts,....
1. Go to Board Index (in the lighter shaded blue banner at top)
2. Then choose a thread that has the red icon to the left of the title,... (indicating new posts)
3. Before you click on the thread you will notice a tiny little beige icon with a downward arrow,... float your cursor over that and it will say the earlierst new post,... click on that and ..... you are THERE!

hope that helps!

Cedar,

You might become our resident guru - you're finding all the little goodies :)

I notice you put a heart in the name of your thread, too. As with all new things, there is a learning curve, but I do think this forum is fairly easy to use for the novice, and has some fun bells and whistles for those more experienced.

You can also get to the new posts you haven't read directly from the General Index room - you have three choices there - to view unanswered posts, view unread posts, view active topics - but they will show all of the threads in the categories, no matter what the room they are in. Then you can skip down like you explained to see the first new to you post in a thread. It is neat.

I love it, and I'm figuring things out as I go. I already figured out be careful when I
hit submit not to accidentally hit save, cause that screwed me up. :lol:
Probably this weekend I'll add a pic to my signature but I am just so tickled with
all this.

This is most awesome!!! To see so many friends here does the heart sooooooo much good!
Sooner or later I guess we will play around and figure out how to put a sig and maybe a picture on a post! LOL
I am gonna look forward to the weekend when I will have more time to play.
Tried to read the new posts but I didn't get thru them all. I am heading off to bed a little early tonight. I'm pooped out.
