Hello, I just signed up a couple days ago and am posting this to introduce myself and to say hello to everybody, -- glad to be here and am looking forward to some good conversations. It is a beautifully put together site, so orderly and nice to use. A special thanks to Duane for establishing it. I hope lots and lots of good people come on over and join in the fun.
:)
Bea...
Welcome. We look forward to your posts. By the way a few of us still go to our former board (Garden Web etc.) and invite folks over to this great board. Duane does indeed make the difference. He is an honest broker who is refreshingly open with his knowledge and insight. I'm sure you will indeed have a worthwhile experience here. Again, good to have you here.
Thanks Cuse! Just remembered another thing I love about this site -- no aggressive ads in your face! What a relief.
PS, Cuse (or anyone) I thought my tag "I love 18C furniture" would go under my name or such, but it's down at the bottom of the thread. What did I do wrong? Thanks. :o

Click on "User CP" at top of page (header), then Edit Your Details and then Your Current User Title (enter "I love 18c furniture") and check Reset.
I think this sequence will work
Let me know otherwise
Cuse
HA! That's just because I haven't figured out how to put them up yet <chortle>Quote:

Oh, I could make money to pay for this site with ads bordering it from Google, etc. It would easily pay for the cost of the forum and to host it. But i decided not to do it (at least for now) since I do like the uncluttered look as well. There is a furntiure-specific google search I put at the top of the page that would pay if anyone used it, but it appears no one does <shrugging shoulders>. No biggie.Quote:

I tried to make it blend into the forum when I set it there. Its supposed to give you furniture-specific results rather than a general Google search. As an example, if you typed in 'Cherry' then it should take you to cherry furniture rather than cherry pie. If enough people use it, it will pay a few pennies here and there to help run the site.Quote:
