newby how to use forum?

[john]

I am looking for the directions on how to use the forum??

[Glaukus]

You appear to be using it already...

[john]

     what are PM's and how do I use them? where can I find some simple instructions on how this forum works? I am not young and smart like some of you guys.

Sorry for being a smartarse, but I couldn't help myself.

Are you using the forum on a computer or mobile device? That's probably the first question. Things will appear differently depending on which. Once we know, we can assist you a bit.

Thanks Glaukus. I use a PC most of the time.

Ok, I hardly ever use the PC version so maybe someone else can chime in.

PM is personal messenger, so you can send one to me if you want a trial run  It is the letter icon in the top right hand corner.

 

The tabs at the top on the left take you to various places as well. You know how to start a thread already!

 

The bell icon next to the letter is your notifications. You should have one from me saying I reacted to your post.

 

If you click the drop down arrow next to your name top right you can go in to various areas regarding your profile (offers, settings, etc.)

 

Welcome aboard bruz!

Many thanks. I should be able to go from here. 
Can you tell me how to attach photos to posts?

Very wet in Darwin this week.

Hi John, when you begin composing a message, there should be an area just below the text-capture where you can 'Drag files here to attach, or choose files...' the 'choose files' is a link that will allow you to search your local directories for image selection.
