Thank you Ygrec23,

In one of my posts I was giving an example of using visuals in a post. The teddy bear is something that many people can picture in their mind and relate to. And I am often a very visual person, for many different reasons.

For example missbelle is visual too as she presents different members with something visual on their board that is something pleasant to look at. Greylove does the same and I often like to visit her site when I feel a need for not only a visual but a comforting presence. And the Byzantine has changing visuals that I like to visit and contemplate over. And there are many different visuals here, the smileys allow people to give a message and present a visual to compliment that message.

If I present a visual sometimes a person can find strength by taking that visual and putting it in their mind as they struggle to find comfort in a positive way. So, in my example a person can visualize themselves working on a "Good teddy bear" and even keeping to task with that.

However, not everyone likes those, some people find them triggering. One soldier that I talk to doesn't like them and they trigger him so I don't put them in.

But for me, in the beginning, those visuals really helped. I am glad I have had access to them to use myself. I have a bland homepage and I don't really like my avatar, but I really havent had time to learn how to do that yet. I often wish I could present my own cartoons like I do outside PC. Someday I will look into taking time to learn that, right now I just don't have time.

So, that is another thing that can make a post special.
