First off, I want to say thank you for letting me be a part of this. Everyone here is so nice and helpful, and I am so glad to finally know other people who love OMD as much as I do, who appreciate this wonderful band. Thank you.
OK, question 1: It seems when I log on initially for the day, then log off, I'm not really logged off. It's like I am always here, even if I'm not. Is that normal? Is it because I log on thru my e-mail message and not go directly to the site? I don't know how to describe it.
Question 2: While you do have a vast array of avatars, wow, there are many, I would like to know if/where I could get an OMD pic to put there. I looked through pretty much the whole avatar section and didn't find them. Are they all taken? I like my holiday thing for now, but maybe after the holidays I could get a new one?? |

and 2 quick answers  1. The short answer is YES, it is because you login through your email. Your login details are sent without you having to type them. You ARE logged out after you click ok on the logout screen. 2. One of the other forum members should be able to help with the OMD avatar. I generally make my own, but occasionally find an image and resize it to fit. Hope this helps. |
| Nigel ? Oh yeah, he's up there ! |

Oh, ok. It just seemed like I was forever logged on. I don't want you guys thinking I sit here all day at the computer!  Thanks for your advice, Nigel. Yeah, you do come up with some pretty cool avatars yourself!  |

Also if you selected 'save login details', your browser will automatically log you in when you go to the site. Debbie, any idea what avatar you want?  |

Your login info is stored in a Cookie.. The Cookie stays on your PC untill you either "log out" or delete your cookies. OMD Avatars... Now there is an idea.... Anyone up for knocking some up, to add to the forum  |

Oh, forgot to say, you do have an option to upload your own avatar
 Ooh, Neil, now thats a scary thought. Look, I just learned how to use the "quote" feature!! I know nothing about computers, I read e-mail, I write stuff, I buy stuff (good at that!  ), yeah, thats pretty much my knowledge of computers. My 7 year old knows more! |

It was a nightmare! I only needed a few quick things. I can only imagine how miserable it was for the people who were just starting. Thats it, next year I'll have it done, completely done, much earlier. |

 So sorry Neil....Well, I solved my first two problems, so theres really not much use in beating it to death. But, I do have another question for ya. How do I avoid the negative sign (-)?? I don't like it and I don't want any.  If I'm nice and stay within topic, will I be clear from it? Do I tick someone off and they decide to negate me? If I ramble too much and ask silly questions will that get me one? |

 Thanks a million, Corky!! Looks like I need all the help I can get, and jeez, before Neil yells at me again,  I suppose you answered my question...(?) So you can just bump people up or down whenever you get the urge? |

Of course!  So far, I haven't come across anbody bad, but if I do I'll let ya know!  Don't you think that would ruin a persons whole day, to get the (-) sign? I know I'd be crushed. What exactly do you do to get one? I'll try not to do it.  |

I just don't want to get on anybodys bad side. Everone here is nice and friendly, but I hope I don't come across as a big mouth because I like to post. I feel like the newbie who posts all over the place and all I'm doing is ticking off the regulars. (I suppose you'll keep me in line, eh Neil?)  |

OK, been thinking of more stuff here....I know.....  1- Why, on the extra smilie page, is the last row on the right so far away from the others? Sometimes I forget that one is there. 2- How come, when I'm on the site, but not logged on, sometimes I'm a "guest" and sometimes I'm a "bot"?? 3- Lastly, why, when I was admitted into the "More I See You", I wasn't automatically admitted into the Over 18 section?? I understand not everyone qualifies for both, but I am just a teensy bit over 18. Not that I want or need to see it, I just always wondered why. |

Answer to question 1 - I don't know, this will have to be answered by Neil.
2) If you are not "logged in" but browsing the forum, you are always classed as a guest. The bots are search engines picking up specific words on the forum.
3) To enter the O18s section you need to request a password from Neil first, you are not given this automatically on joining the More I See You section. |
| Nigel ? Oh yeah, he's up there ! |

On the pop up box, you can re-size it with a click n drag to make it the right size  And Nigel has got the other answers spot on  |
