It's now official... I feel at home here..

[FLSharon]

Am I the only one who was lost at first and felt like I lost my best friend????:cry: However, all is well now and I now feel at home and I can navigate quite well.... I'm sorry that I don't have any tips to share, yet but I do love it all... thanks so much!!:clapping:

[PixiePrincess]

to be honest, I can't even remember what the old boards looked like... I sailed right into this board. I love it!! :mickey:

[Frogman]

I feel the same way Sharon. :) Most of what I didn't like was just not knowing where to find things. That went away in no time and now it is great.

[BaciBecky]

I felt lost too, Sharon, but now feeling very much at home :)

Thanks to all who worked to make our new home so comfy :clap:

[SusanL]

Glad everyone is feeling at home now!!!

:minnie: Welcome Home:minnie:

Change is always difficult, and takes time. I'm so happy that people are starting to get used to these new boards and the supporting software. And giving it a chance in the first place! :yes:

There have been amazingly few problems (knock on wood) and you all have done a great job settling in! While I'm trying to help out with reattaching avatars and fixing countdowns don't be afraid to ask for help as well. Just send me a PM or email at tagrel@tagrel.com We'll get you fixed up and ready to go!

I'd say the #1 issue was that many people forgot their passwords. If you are having trouble getting a new one assigned, don't hesitate to contact me as well. I can easily fix this for you.

And suggestions and any issues you run into - ask away! I can't promise to implement every idea, but I can at least know and think about them! :)

A P.S.

Dave, no doubt I owe you a big thanks for my avatar and tag :) I was soo surprised to see Baci the first ime I logged on to the new site :) And when I couldn't figure out how to get my lovely MissBianc-made tag back, I heard you helped with that as well.

A great big thanks! :flowers: and :nicehug:

I have a question Dave:
How come you cannot paste into the reply boxes?
I found I can paste by using the edit button in my browser window, but I was very surprised there was no button in the reply window to do it. Nor is there a copy button.

Hmmmmm - just pasted in the quick reply box

Copy and paste from another window into the advance - I must not understand the question correctly :confused: - not an unusual occurrence:lol:
I right clicked inside the reply for both - now I did have the reply boxes "open" or a curse inside them when I went to copy then paste

[Lady]

I feel at home too - the new site is funtastic!!
So very easy to use!!!
Well except for my countdown thingy but it's my computer
that's causing the problem :(
I just go in every morning and change the numbers myself :yikes:

Again - this site is funtastic!!

Maybe it's browser related. But I've tried it with both Netscape and Firefox and there's no C or P on either one. In fact, the right click options read more like an animated window would: back, forward, reload and stop. Nothing for copy, cut or paste.
Which is another issue. When I want to edit, I have to keep pressing my back button as I can't cut.

[ddoll]

Okay, trying it now with IE (which I never use) and Paste is an option on the right click. Not copy or cut though. And Back and forward are still there.

Perhaps I should post this in Tech Diff instead?

[MissBianca]

If there's no menu copy and paste, you can nearly always use the following key combinations on the Windows platform. By "nearly always" I mean "always that I've ever noticed but you never know".

copy: ctrl c
paste: ctrl v
cut: ctrl x

[Tagrel]

Sorry for the delay ddoll - tech diff probably is the best place for specific usage questions, and helps others find the answers to the questions too!

I guess the makers of the editor windows decided to 'leave off' special buttons for cut, copy and paste. I've used the keyboard combinations that Miss B posted for so long I didn't even notice.

You can cut/copy and paste in all the editor windows. I do it ALL the time. I'd suggest writing them on a stickey note until you get them down, and then you will never go back! :yes:

Nah, using the edit button in the browser is easier. Thanks for the hint though.
