Customizing Your Profile:
Username: This is your signup name that you Registered with. And you cannot change it.
Password: Make sure this is blank each time you
update your profile, or the site will assume you are attempting to change it.
Display Name: You may change this as often as
you like, but be aware it may confuse people. If you change it, we will still
know who you are via the Profile. So don't attempt to change it in order to
Insult someone, or Impersonate them.
Website URL: Must begin with HTTP:// or it will
not register. This must be a genuine Site of yours, and not an advertisement
on behalf of some other Site.
Avatar URL: Your custom Icon for this Site.
To obtain one, you must have an Image that is already on the internet, Go
to that image, right click and select, 'View Image' (for PC users) so that
the image appears in its own internet window.
Copy the URL (HTTP:// code) into the Avatar/Icon
part of your profile.
(OR if it's only on your computer, you will need to upload it to a Hosting
Site. Like Photobucket.com.
Then copy the Direct Link image code, form the list of codes.)
This is also the same process for adding an image into your Signature:
*Icons and Avatars may not be identical to another member, may not
contain explicit words or explicit images. And must not be used to offend
anyone. They may also not promote Drugs, Pornography or Violence.

Creating a New Thread.
After clicking on the relevant Category, you can begin by posting your own
Topic. To do this you need to create a New Thread. It is your responsibility
to make sure you post in the right Section.
Replying And Quoting
Replying to others posts in easy when using these controls.
If you are replying to the Topic, or the Original Post in the Thread,
a straight forward ''Reply'' will be fine.
But when replying to an Individual, or to certain Members who have also
posted in the Thread, you need to Quote what you are repying to.
Either by pressing the ''Quote'' Button, or typing;
[quote]part of their post/message[/quote]
Alternatively you can ''@shout'' Someone.
By just writing their Name before your Reply, or by writing something like;
''@wolfgirl09
Thanks for that, I really Appreciate it.''
