Notice how your posting changes?
Have any of you gone back and looked at your posts from day one? I have noticed that I rarely use smileys anymore. I used to use them A LOT! Any one else noticed how their posts have changed over the years (months, weeks, or how ever long you been posting)?

Things have I learned since day one:
(1) the edit button, I used to think once I pressed SUBMIT I could not go back and change it
(2) I finally figured out how to attach a picture - a big accomplishment for me!
(3) I finally figured out how to attach an avatar - and what an avatar was.
Then again, this is my first time ever posting on any forum/board/whatever you call it.

I have seen how more mature I have gotten over my 19 months here. I have noticed a change over in the actively posting members since I joined here. A few good people have slowed down or stopped posting while numerous new members have joined and have started posting actively. It is great to see ourselves change but it is also fun to see how the board has evolved.

I wish I could figure out how to post a picture! I've actually asked for help with that in one or two other threads, but so far no one has responded.mindflipper wrote:Things have I learned since day one:

So how do you do it?

Here's how I figured it out. Step One: go to photobucket.com and open an account. Step Two: load your picture into your photobucket account. Once loaded, it will give you ways of linking photos. The [IMG] codes are the ones you need for a pic to be displayed here. Step Three: Copy that link information from there on photobucket and paste it into your posting here on subsonic. Then when you press SUBMIT, the picture should appear here in your listing.Mouskedude wrote: So how do you do it?
Does that sound right to everyone? Do you know of an easier way? If so, please tell me and Mousekedude.

I think you may have to do that yourself for the postings. Some other cases this website does it, like it did for my avatar (it's in my photobucket account). I didn't shrink it down, but somehow that was done for me.Mousekedude wrote: can you tell me if photobucket has a way to adjust the size of the picture so you can set it at whatever size you want it to be in the post here?
Maybe once some people get enough points for the requests, they just stop posting to the forum. It's a shame, they miss out on the fun. For me, I joined for the forum, not the radio (I was sent the link the forum by a friend, not to the radio). I thought the radio part was a fringe benefit to being a member. Took me a while to realize it was really the other way.Len90 wrote: A few good people have slowed down or stopped posting while numerous new members have joined and have started posting actively.

Len after you look back you can see how your writing and ideas have matured also. You are right about all the people that have come and gone. It seems to come in waves.

You might be correct about that mindflipper. I also think the other reason for this is that people join before going away on a Disney Vacation and just never come back after coming home. I can understand the gloomies that are tough to overcome following your vacation, but this site is great at helping to try and fill the massive void.mindflipper wrote:Maybe once some people get enough points for the requests, they just stop posting to the forum.

Why thank you Jacca. However, this might be as mature as I will ever get!Jacca5660 wrote: Len after you look back you can see how your writing and ideas have matured also. You are right about all the people that have come and gone. It seems to come in waves.

Take it from me, maturity is soooo over-rated. The body may be aging, but mind doesn't have to be. Avoid getting any more mature, Len90! Be a lost boy forever!Len90 wrote: Why thank you Jacca. However, this might be as mature as I will ever get!

When talking about getting pics in your posts, please realize that your post is LINKED to the picture located in photobucket. If you delete that picture from photobucket, your picture will vanish here on Subsonic.

I guess we should be starting the Big Kids Club??? DH and I would be charter members too!
Don't you think it's funny when we were kids, we couldn't wait to be grown-ups, but as grown-ups, we all want to be child-like...same goes for nap time. I never wanted to take a nap after lunch...now I would love to take a nap...funny how these things work...
As far as looking at my past posts compared to now, I was so nervous when I first came to the boards. I had never been a part of a forum before. Now I can't imagine life without Subsonic!
