If you're register in another proboard like I am then when you register here it will detect that your email is already associated with the other proboard and it will ask you for the password you set up with that account. After inputting your password then you get a page asking for the username you want to use with this proboard. You'll also get a box that's suppose to keep robots from registering but all it asks for is that you put a check mark in a box indicating you're not a robot and after that info is loaded you're taken to a page stating you were successful with registering.
I need to log out and click around in here to see whether this is like Phil's forum where if you're not login you get a large popup stating you have an adblocker on and to please disable it in this group. Actually now that I think of it I don't remember when the last time I log into Phil's group, maybe that popup comes up even if you are logged in.

I see that we can insert images, which I'm going to try in this post. OK it looks like we can only insert images that are online and have a url. I used postimage.org to upload and share images. If you register there you can store images which will be archived as long as you want it to. You can store up to 1000 images there.

When I set up my profile I saw where there was a tab called Badges where you could purchase a badge--what's that about Pete ?
and now that I've set up a profile I no longer have that badge tab but I now have a Gift tab that states I can gift somebody a proboard + for $2.99 a month.
On the profile page you need to click the Save button on the bottom of the page on some of the pages and on other ones it automatically states it's saved the info as soon as you change something.
If you want to add your birth date you do need to add a birth year(not necessarily the correct year) but I see that the year doesn't show up in your profile.
It looks like we don't have a choice of forum themes but this one looks ok to me.
I also see now that when I click onto my profile I do have an edit button which allows me to edit my profile and on the edit page there is the Badge tab.

I'm going to try adding a video and I'm really hoping it doesn't auto play. If it does then Pete would you please delete this post---or maybe I can delete it. I hadn't noticed whether we have the option to delete our posts.

good the video doesn't autoplay and I see that I am given the option to delete the post We are also given the option to thumbs up a post, along with Select, Link To, Report a post along with sending the poster a message. I'm going to thumbs up one of my posts to see if it just thumbs up it or if it also moves a post up in the thread--which I doubt that it will. I also just notice that we can add an attachment which I'll try in here to see whether the attachment is added from my pc or whether it gives me the option to upload to an image storage site. OK I just found out that we can insert an image directly from our pc without using a image storage website by using the add attachment button. I also found out that as soon as I activated my cursor below this image that the image was deleted and I had to re-add it to this post.

When you hit a thumbs up it notifies the person that you thumbs up by email if you set up your notifications to email you or else you receive a notification within your profile that states somebody liked your post. I'm going try attaching another image just to see if it's deleted again if I try to type below the image. it looks like it's been deleted again but I'm going to make this post and see if it is added to this post.
