Here's a breakdown of how you can customize your experience and learn how certain things work.
Click "profile" to change, upload or make an avatar. Keep Avs PG-13 please
after clicking "profile" click "edit profile" for more options such as:
Personal: Here you can change your display name, change your password and add or change a "signature"( A "sig" which is text that shows up at the bottom of your posts)
Social: Here you can add links to your Facebook, Twitter, Google+ etc. (this info is hidden from "guests", only "members" can see it)
Settings: Here you can change how the site looks for you by changing the "theme" (different colors and some themes have more options and features than others) You can "preview" themes right on that page, hopefully there's 1 you like and I do add more from time to time. You can also show or hide avatars, signatures and smilies. "Enable drafts" will save posts that you start, useful if you have a bad connection or are planning on making a longer post.
Privacy: Here you can set who can view your profile, you can opt to be "invisible" (your name won't be visible in the "online users" area) and you can manage your blocked/ignored users list.
Notifications: Users get "notifications" for things such as when some one "likes" or replies to one of your posts, when you get a PM etc...Turn them on/off or get them only on here or get an email alert
---------------
Other helpful hints:
To post a picture or GIF click the image tab. You need to erase the "http" that shows up then paste in the URL...
to post a Youtube video just post the link and it'll embed the video

Try this: [twitter id= "Tweet ID here"
the tweet ID is obtained by clicking on the date of any tweet you see on your screen to open the individual tweet on its own page and grabbing the numerical ID that shows at the end of the address bar. ----------------------------
Let me know if this helps or not...I'm not much of a tweeter lol

How do I move certain threads into my area or mark as Important to me so that I see them when I log on?

How do I move certain threads into my area or mark as Important to me so that I see them when I log on? you can either "bookmark" a thread or just click on the "participated" tab... to bookmark a thread, go to the threads list, hover over the thread title and a little box will appear...check the box...then click "actions" and "bookmark thread" hope that helps

I noticed that the NFL pickem was marked "Important" is in the top section...be nice if I could do that to mine as well.

I pretty much just use the "recent posts" tab...

Oh, nope, "important" threads is something only I can do. I pretty much just use the "recent posts" tab... So there's nothing I can do to find certain threads easily...how does the bookmark work? I've bookmarked it but don't see anywhere to search by that....

If you can't help then so be it. Bad enough that I have to beg others to move my posts where others can see them, makes one feel very underwanted...sooooo, have a good life

Looks like an IE thing. Everything is fine on Firefox...but thanks sooooo very much for your concern. Make one complaint and told 'bye'. Awesome way to get more posters to join.

I asked a couple of questions so I could look in to it. You didnt answer either question, complained some more and told me to have a nice life...My bad? FTR, if you had put this in the site issues forum I'd have seen it sooner. You'd also know the first thing I need to know is what theme you are using. And also that 9 times out of 10 the issue is on the users end and there's nothing I can do. Which is what this was but again, my bad... sure

Which is what this was but again, my bad... sure Didn't think of the Site Issues Forum, but saw the 'How To' and went there. I told you I couldn't paste anything into the site so a screenshot was out of the question...and I changed to various other themes and they all have centered. BTW, I'm using Zig's Theme. I understand that it is usually PICNIC, but wondering if you had heard about this before and had a simple fix. I do work with computers and programming a little bit so am aware of that. Not faulting you for that, just your rapid 'bye' response...but it is what it is.

If it's hookers and blow.....where is the more sketchy part of town so I can.....um, utilize it? in the early days we had a store , stock market and a bookie but now the fake money is even more worthless than it was back then. I didn't even know the money was still a thing
