Welcome to the ACE forum, this is a little information on how to use a forum.

Hopefully it will give you enough information on how to use the features of our forum to get you started. You can always ask for help and I'm sure someone will be able to guide you through whatever you want to do.

When you first visit the forum main page you will see a list of categories, each section has a little description of what the section is for listed under the name.

You can also tell if there has been any new replies since your last visit because the little box will be a brighter color than the other sections. (left arrow). The other side of the page has some info about each section, and the last thread replied to (right arrow).

Once you open a section you will see the threads listed. New replies are a brighter color (left). The right arrow is the button you click to start a new thread.

Or, if you are already in a thread, on the upper right is the reply button if you want to add your comment to the thread. There is also a button on the bottom of the thread that does the same thing.

When you click the reply, or new thread button you will get a new screen, it will have a box where you type in your message, you can also click the smilies to add them to your message.

For New Topics, you will have a couple of options, You can add a picture from your computer by clicking the button by the top arrow. When you are finished with your message, click the add reply button by the bottom arrow.

How does one change the name of a link you post in your thread? I've noticed lately that there is a lot for the Bombay sight. How do you do this? I have tried and nothing seems to do it.

Thanks for any help you can give me. :banghead

Click on the insert Link Button rte-link-button.png in the post and you can insert the first box, and in the next box name the link like Click Me.

Hope this helps you.
