Hope to see you all here soon.   I just discovered this today and passed info on to Joyce.  I'm assuming she will notify everyone.  Have been very busy, as I know all of you have, but it will be great to be able to see you all here again.  I'm sure it will take time to get used to this, but that's what I'm doing now.  Then I'm off to get things done before dh gets home from work.

This definitely will take some getting used to, but have to go now.

 

Just wanted to put the Welcome Mat Out

Now I used the "Quote" feature of posting.

One by one we are showing up.  By the end of the weekend, we will be in full swing.

Ruth is having trouble getting here, too. 

 

"There is no way I can get logged in on the new board, and I am getting very frustrated trying.  It won't accept my old password, and when I ask for help, they send me my old name, with no password.  I don't know what to do next."  Ruth I told her that I reset password, and to try that.  If that doesn't work, will try to keep in touch so we don't lose her.  Maybe that's why all the rest haven't shown up yet.   Several have reported not being able to backspace or make corrections, and I have that in the Message Title area of the process.  I "block" what I want to eliminate and retype, which replaces the blocked typing.  Hope we all make it during the weekend, and can start Monday "on the same page".   Connie

I know this may be different, but with everything you had figured out with the old Board, it will just be a matter of time on this one and you will be doing it all!!!

 

I think Mac users may be having some problems the rest of us aren't, cause I have heard that from the other Board I use also.

 

Just above the typing screen and just below the Message Title, do you have a space with some "buttons"  that say:  B (bold), I (italics) , 1___2___3___ (insert/remove numbered list) , *___ *___ *___ (insert/remove bulleted list) ABC (Spell Check) , AA (text color), etc. (Remove Format; Insert/Edit Image).

 

It seems (if I remember) when I was trying to add a picture that when I went to edit picture or add on PROFILE that I couldn't actually "find" my old picture and so chose a different picture, but when I got back to screen, my "old" picture from "old" message board, magically appeared, as you see it to the left of the screen.

 

Some of our problems may be "us" and then again some of them may be new system.  The moderator seems to be doing a good job of trying to keep up with us.  Hopefully things will calm down and they can at least get a little break.  lol

 

Like I said, you were "performing" so well before, you will be shining through with your pictures again soon.  Just remember to "breathe".

 

Have a great day.

 

Connie

And I don't see any name in message...and don't recognize picture.

 

Who is this??? or Who are you???   lol

 

Connie

See - I told you - you would be the first (or one of the first) to figure out how to insert a picture in the actual message.  You're way ahead of me - that's for sure.  I'm still trying to Insert/Edit Image and can't get anything to cooperate.  I even tried the Right click and copy and tried to insert that way, but it won't "go there" for me.  You wouldn't believe just where I have been in this computer trying to get something to work - anything.   lol

 

Okay - relax, breathe, this is not "that" important.  My problem is that I used to be a Word Processing Specialist, and could figure out Word Perfect to the MAX - did all sorts of stuff.  And now, feel like my brain isn't working any more.  Even took courses from local college when I first started Word Perfect, and didn't even know what program others were using, (Lotus 123, etc.) and could help them get to where they wanted to be, when they would be lost in a program and they thought I knew that program.  So this is frustrating to me. 

 

And then some of the things that I tried, didn't work, but then what I was trying to do happened without my input.  Now that's scary.  Oh well, aren't we having fun, and happy to see each other!!!  That's the important thing.

 

Connie

Glad to see you made it.

 

Connie

Profile pictures are disappearing and reappearing. 

 

I was going to tell Ruth W that I liked your picture and it's gone.  Just told Joyce she had it figured out, then pictures disappeared on page I was on, but were on next page.  Picture on person having trouble logging on has disappeared, but still no identity, so they must be working on site.

 

I'm going to do something constructive and come back when things calm down.  lol
