Hi everyone

Trying my best to get used to this "new" forum so any advise is appreciated - so here is my question - I think there is a way to only see the "new" responses to a posted question and not have to scroll down all the ones you have already read (I think I read something about a link on the right hand side of the home page but I can't find it or maybe it's that I don't know what I am looking for)

Help please

Pia

Oh - and how do you get the little personalized photos next to your name?

when someone responds it pushes the entire thread to the top. and it will also show the little piece of paper to the left of the posts with a different color if there is a new response. the paper is yellow (?) if there is a new reponse and white if you read it already.

Does that help?

There are little pictures under the profile section. You can also custom make one but I don't know how to do that - I stick to the basics!

That was a really helpful response but for the life of me I can't see anything indicating "index" or a link to "index" or a drop down menu showing the options you mentioned. I thought I saw them before but I can't find them anywhere now--not on the page that I'm reading your response on nor if I back arrow to 'home' anything there. Please help!

look at the top or bottom of the page you're reading this message on. It says, in green,

Virgin-Islands-On-Line Forum Index -> U.S. Virgin Islands Travel Forum

Click on the one that says Index. That'll do it.

That's great. NOW I got it. Thank you Jan!!

Thanks everyone

Thanks California Girl! Great tips. Did you already know all this stuff, or are you a very quick learner?!
Pia, do you know that if you click on the little piece of paper next to the last poster's name it will bring you to the last post in the thread? That's pretty useful.

Ruth........yeh, that's what I was looking for (thanks to everyone else too)

Hi Ruth -

Nope, I'm as new at this as anyone else, but I'm pretty computer literate so I figure things out quickly. I just dinked around the first couple of days and clicked on just about everything to figure out how it all worked. Plus, I have the advantage of knowing Photoshop, so I like to offer my help to anyone who needs it to make their avatar personalized. No charge - LOL!!!!

Take California Girl up on the Avatar thing if you are having trouble. I LOVE mine and she did it for me.

I know my avatar may seem simple, but I couldn't find one anywhere on the avatar sites. She used her photoshop to make mine.
