Post = Message.
Series of messages and replies on one topic = Thread. You can post messages in a public forum, or send as Private Messages. The ones in a forum are public; Private Messages are only to the people you send them to, not public.

One thing to beware of (I don't know if this is going to be a problem for you) is writing out a post, clicking "Preview", seeing it in "print" the way you wanted it -- and going to a different page w/o ever clicking "Submit". If you want to see everything you've posted, go to your profile (click on your username pretty much anywhere it shows up as a link), click the "Statistics" tab, and click on "Find all posts by RubyRedd". You may already have figured that out. I get the impression that you're finding your way around just fine by now, and in good company too. ![]() ![]() |

I think that you will learn your way around with a little time and practice
