Compliment: Crafty Darlene - that quilt is fabulous! A maple leaf quilt like that has been on "my list" to get to for years and maybe this is the inspiration I need. Well done!

Now the question: Used to be that when looking at a thread, like this SP one, we could "jump" to a particular numbered page of posts by putting the page number in a little box at the bottom of the page. Now all I see is a few number choices I can go to, like right now I see "First...24, 64, 73, 74" with some arrows to go forward and backward. I try to remember which page I read last time I was on the board and just go there to start so I don't have to page through a whole lot each time. Anyone know a good way to do this? Thanks.

Just click on the down arrow right next to the word page, and it drops a smaller windown down where you can input a page number and go directly to it without having to flip through all the other pages.

Thanks Moedeeine, it helps! And, look, with everyone's advice, I have now figured out how to change my font and colors. I also see how to insert a photo (about to try it now) and there is also a link to insert a video clip! (Not going to try that now, but does that mean that we could include links to video tutorials? Or, (gulp), make our own and include them?? Hmmm.) (OK, getting a message that "attempts to upload my jpeg have failed...will try again another time)

I am learning this one step at a time, too. Hopefully someone will have some additional tips for you!


No, you don't have to repost in that thread....all I did was UNSUBSCRIBE and then reSUBSCRIBED and I'm good.

That is exactly what I was looking for - thank you so much!
Also, I changed my settings to see more posts per page than the default gives you - in general settings, if anyone is interested. Also, with fonts, do you have to choose it each time (for example this is comic sans) or can you default the changes and save them so all your posts always come up this way?

I also found if you "go advanced" to reply... scroll down a little bit you will find "additional options" and subscriptions is there and you can make changes there. This is how I started getting email notifications again... I this helps too:)
