*waves* Hi!
I'm not getting emails notifying me of new posts to threads that I've posted in. I checked the box in my Profile to allow emails, but I'm still not getting them. Nothing is showing up in my spam folder, either. Halp!

Maggie - you left out the open and closing tags on your signature. I've added them in and now it's displaying. I don't know how avatars work at DDB, but if you're avatar is in your photobucket: log in to photobucket, go to your avatar, copy the code in the box that's labeled "direct link" and paste that into the Avatar URL box in the Personal Information section of your profile.
Let me know if that doesn't work.

Cathy - I don't know the answer to the e-mail question, but didn't want to overlook your post - I'll send someone who might know more in here to help you. Sounds good?

I somehow stumbled over the skins one night and I was able to change it but now I want to try other skins because I found out that the skin I picked sometimes will give me a black background and the posts are hard to read when it is black. Now I am trying to change the skins back but I don't know how to get back to that option. Where is it? I tried the Skins Preview thread but there are no instructions there. Maybe it is helpful if one could preview the skins and then if they want to change right there and then, there's a link there that lead us to choosing a different skin.
For now, though, could someone help me find where I could choose a different skin? Thanks. Could you please pm me? I don't know if I will remember how to get back here after I post this. Thanks again.

Thanks again. I don't know that adding the option of previewing the skins while you're in that area of your profile is something we can add as a feature, but you could have your profile open in one window and the skins preview thread open in another. You can find information on how to use the forum features in the How Do I....? Thread. There is a post in there titled "Select a Skin" with information. The skins drop-down menu is in the Account Preferences section of your user profile.

I was wondering if there is anyway to add a 'next page' option instead of just pg. numbers at the bottom. (that dang box is not cooperating with me) Also, after you post, is there anyway to be returned to that point instead of scrolling down the page. Lame questions, because I am lame and lazy. Thanks in advance for any response.
I just noticed the spell check option. Nice!

Hi linda --
We had the code in to return to your post, but it stopped working sometime over the last couple days. If my last couple posts are any indication, it's been repaired now.
Multi-paged threads do have a page advance already. The lower left side of the page will read:
<<Page 1 of 3>>
You can click on the << or the >> to advance or go back a page.

Laura - If you find a photo you like, you can either edit it with a photo editing program on your computer or you can let photobucket size a full size picture for you.

I might not be asking this in the right place, but can one use a credit card for the fan club or do you have to use pay pal? Pay pal was all that came up when I tried. thanks for answering my question.

This isn't really the right place to ask but that's okay.
I've not gone through the process of making a purchase myself yet, but generally speaking you don't need a paypal account to pay through paypal when using a credit card. I will try to find out if direct credit card payments are an option in the future.
