Hi I am a new member,I have figured out how to post.But I do not know how to pm (private message )to someone.IE on for rent

Click on the name of anyone you wish to PM and a drop down box comes up with that as one of the many options.

Use the instructions above to start a new thread. You will get more replys from a new thread than this thread which has nothing to do with Lumber Liquidators.

confused but willing to learn
 

I am new to this site and, although I can reply to posts, I can't seem to see where the start thread button is.. Can someone explain to me where it is? I have a million questions.
I also have not been able to see where to post for an introduction on the new member forum. I found the forum with a message from the admin but there is no reply button. Thanks.

When you go to the desired forum/section you would click the New Thread button to start a brand new discussion.

How can I delete a thread? I checked the EDIT function but could not see a delete option. Thanks

Thanks!!!

Does my picture appear when I post
 

Hi All - I am new to this.

Does my picture appear when I post.

I have posted 1 reply to date, but did not see my pic attached.

Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks

The Admin had answered that question in another thread last year. CLICK HERE to read the response.

BTW, welcome to TOTV!

Hello
 

I am new to TV Forum. Am I posting in the right place? All the ads are a bit confusing.

This test post was successful. You should go to the section of interest, then click on that section and post a message there. There are no discussions in this forum.

Tony (or anyone out there) -
There is the "post Reply" at the end of the last message like you said, and - there is the "Quick Reply" box after the last message! What is the difference?

You can respond to any posting without quoting by clicking the "pencil & paper" button to the right of the "Quote" button. It will immediately take you to the Quick Post window to enter your post without having to scroll down first. You can later add the quote before posting if you change your mind by clicking a little box in the edit window.

BTW, Tony is no longer with the site as Admin if at all!

2. Click on "edit signature"
3. Type in signature statement.

I hope this helps.

We are going to The Villages!

This is really good for people like me who are learning their way around totv.

Photo Upload
 

I have been trying to upload a photo of an item that I would like to post on the Items for sale in the villages. It is a .jpeg document but the upload keeps failing. Am I missing something?

If you're following the proper procedure/steps, it could be that the file size for your photo is too large. If you have no other software to do that, you can always use MS Paint as a means to do it.

Bill :)

Patty, send me your photo and I will resize it and send it back to you.

Thank you...this is very helpfull

Business Cards for New Villagers
 

When we have visited The Villages and have met people they've handed us their "business" cards and it was a really neat way to keep in touch with them.

Now that we're going to be Villagers where can we get the cards printed so that it has all of your information on it (ie: two addresses, two phone #'s etc.)

Thanks for any and all help.

We and many of our neighbors ordered ours at www.vistaprint.com

me too.

Thank you so much Kitty and Champion!

Is there a way to get your post to show up each day?
