Hope your birthday is great!

I appreciate your letting us know, Paul.  If you describe what the problem is when you try to log in, maybe MB or I can help.  Also, unless you share your access, is it possible for you to stay logged in when you leave the board?

Yo, Blue!!

the diff between "read only" and "locked" is that, i can set the thread/topic to "read only" and only allow mods and/or admins access to editing, moving or replying to a thread (for instance, one that we have archived and i'm already quite happy with the posts and don't want it added to or tampered with) or i can "lock" it, so that no one, even an admin, can inadvertently add another post or edit it or move it. of course, any admin can unlock it and lock it again, but it's a matter of courtesy to NOT interfere when another admin has made a decision like that...

Ah, I get it.  Thanks!

and i'm like whoever it is in your family.. i love music!~  

It's my son, who dowloaded your song for me off KaZaA.  Whoa, lemme start over... I listened to the midi in your profile, it stuck with me, had to hear the whole thing, and then decided it was a keeper.  And of course it's all your fault, hee hee!!

I am more than a little paranoid! Given all the problems, I've been deleting most that I don't expect.

Good!  I didn't send you anything, but a nasty virus that's making the rounds (Klez) is sending itself out and can appear to be from me but isn't.  I've also received a couple of emails saying they're from you, but a check of the expanded headers shows that NONE of them originated from your computer.  This virus is so sneaky that it gets into address books and not only sends itself out while pretending to be from someone else, it also steals email titles.  I get the durn thing between 5 and 10 times a day and fortunately my Norton program takes care of it.

So don't open any attachments right now unless you have antivirus software and have also updated it so that it's current.  I've rarely sent attachments to anyone else using these boards, so unless you've requested something from me and I've told you when it's coming, don't open it, and if you don't have A/V software then I recommend you go as far as your recycling bin to delete it!

How do we gain more stars beside our names in our posts here? Is it by how many or how often we post?

Yes, you gain more stars as you make more posts.  Hope to see your stars increase cuz it'll mean you're continuing to post and enjoy yourself.

Welcome (again ) to you and MrsBat too!

Daphne,

Angelfire doesn't allow its images to show up on sites other than their own.  Same goes for tripod.  

Midnite Dahlink....

I be confused here.  Not seeing any duplication except for the emoticons which I purposely duped to be the cute smart aleck that I am![chrmg] But I know you're gonna find a way to take care of it!  I have faith in you! And Thanks for calling my attention to it grrlfriend![okg][/color]

The glow feature doesn't show up for any Netscape users, and in Netscape 6.2 those messages have a tendency to show up twice within the same post.  This message I'm responding to is also repeated.  Thanks for the vote of confidence, but I can't stop it from showing up that way for anyone reading the board using the newest version of Netscape.
