To have your font permanently changed hit the reply button and pick how you want it to look. Then copy the BBCode without your text and go to your profile. Edit profile and go to settings. From there under posting default select BBCode and it will give you a box to enter your code into. Paste your code and hit save.

What - how to I get access to the old 2peas smiles PaigePea and Linda~Lou - I fixed my link to the smiley thread and also put directions in my post. Linda~Lou, when I first tried, it didn't work either, but there are two different places you have to click to save, I was missing one and it didn't save at first.

You can also hit the "Home" button on your keyboard for a quick trip to the top of the page. To bookmark a thread, right click the "Actions" button near the top right of the page and scroll down to Bookmark. If you're in the Reply window, you can click the "quote" bubble to insert copied text for a quote. omg, that "home" to get to the top is so much faster than going through the "gear" symbol!! thank you!!

OMG. I just noticed that on the main page you could look down and see everyone who's online and click on them! It is so cool!

But I need link to 2peas smilies that Gale has.

I am still lost on this one. There isn't a settings symbol to the right of the reply box on my computer. Does it make a difference if you are using Firefox?

I can't get the default font to work. BBC code--I clicked on what I wanted, copied/pasted it into the settings box. When I save it I see it in the "quick reply" box and in the "reply" box.
Hmmmm.....wisdom please

On the upper right hand corner, there is a button that says "New Participated". If you click that, a box will come up with the threads you have posted in. I was so happy to find that feature!!

I am still lost on this one. There isn't a settings symbol to the right of the reply box on my computer. Does it make a difference if you are using Firefox? When I say reply box I mean the box that previous posts are in. The settings icon is alongside the quote button and the like button.

This is probably old news to everyone else, but if you click the new button on the thread title, it takes you to new posts since you last clicked on the thread. I LOVE that!

You may not have seen the post earlier that if you hit the Home key on your keyboard it will also take you to the top. I find that to be the easiest way to get to the top.

You could try copy/paste. I don't know if that works or not. I haven't worked with it on either device.

If you want to earburn someone in a post, just put an @ in front of their username. I've never heard the term 'earburn' before. I learn something new here all the time, thanks!
