Difference between "member" & "contributor"

[bevcon]

I am new to TOTV. I see some listed as members and others as contributors. What does it take to be a member? What are the costs & benefits? Is there a place to go to get instructions on how to use TOTV? How do people get their pictures in? I apologize for my ignorance, but I am enjoying the site; however, don't quite get how to use it.

bevcon,

Up near the top of the page is a row of links used by this forum.

You will see Help, the fifth from the left.
Click that.


When the Help page appears you will see another menu line part way down the page.

This line looks like this.
• Registering • Logging In • Profile • Posting • Personal Message • Searching

Read over the first help page and click the items above on the help page to get familiar.

Next, there is no charge for use of the forum. We offer advertising to support it.

About pictures? When you are looking through the help pages look at the section on Profiles.
For other pictures, go to the following message where Jan explains picture insertion.

If you mean that you want to insert a picture of yourself into your profile, you
will be able to do that by selecting User CP (user Control Panel) at the top of
the page where it says "Welcome back."

Here is a link to instruction I posted previously.

Let me know if you if I can help you.

No costs bevcon your status changes by number of posts u make. Benefits are all the knowledge you get reading all this info from all the contributors. Meet us in the chat room an we will guide you thru the bits and pieces of making your posts. Someone is usually in the chat room around 8:30-11:30 PM EDT. See you there and welcome :welcome:
