Tech Question:

Just so I know for next time....when I make a mistake trying to post something, like a picture that doesn't come out, is there a way to delete the whole post without it showing up with a title and nothing else? (like the "formal night" post last night). I don't want to clog up the board with my technical errors - I'm still learning!

Glad to hear that Mike, I thought it was just me being dumb again!

Donna, you can scroll down several pages into old, old threads and post a reply in one of the threads to test it out. On the Chit-Chat board the thread doesn't get bumped back up to the top as it does in other forums.

This way you can test some of the graphics without clogging up the top page.

Regards,
Thomas

Also Donna,
YOu can let one of the monitors know and we can delete the post, not a problem.

I do what Thomas does. Just go back several pages on Chit-Chat and find a post no one is likely to read again. Then you can test an image or whatever without that post getting bumped up to the top.

Cheers,

Michelle, this is a tech question for you.
How do you include a link to a web site without writting the entire url only "weddings" underlined? Like you did in another post.

Moai,

You simply post your link like this. Remove the spaces in the [ url] tags, that was the only way I could get them to show up.

And it should show up like this:
