To reply to your post I have clicked on the 'fast reply' button and written this.

Then I will press the 'add reply' button underneath where I am typing. :)

Welcome here Picablu :)

Hi hazelnut. I realized the bottom reply box is the one to use after I sent the wrong reply to you. I WILL learn to use this. There is literally a world of information on this site! It's going to be great once I've learned to use it comfortably.

Hi whrx. Thanks for your reply. I see you just got started, too. I haven't figured how to insert an emoticon yet, so here's a smile for you.

in "Add Reply" mode just click one of the handy emoticon icons to the left of the text box

in "Fast Reply" click the smile emoticon above the text box (it should open a new window) then click the emote you want to use.

the other easy way to emote is to type

: ) without the space to get :)

: D without the space to get :D

OK, thank you. :) I'm trying this to see if I get it right. Will preview before sending. Yay! Did it!

Above is how not to post :)

Keep practicing in this topic and you should get it right whrx, try again, but this time add some text of your own to the reply.

To insert a emoticon, click on the Smiley face icon in either the Fast Reply or the Add Reply area (where you type your post). ;)

EDIT: Firey got there first, lol. :lol:

Hi Picablu. Welcome. :D

If you decide you want to post a graphic or picture, DennisD has provided an excellent explanation here.

An example of his artistry is here. If you click on that thumbnail it will open a bigger version of the picture.

I mention this because I hung around here for a long time before I learned how to do it, Hazelnut finally told me how to.

Hi login123. Thank you for the info! I'll try it soon. Am learning a little at a time. Not doing too badly for a 73 yrs old great grandma. :)

NOT MY POST

So that everyone is aware, the first post of WHRX in the topic started by Pickabu is FALSE

I'm not too concerned about damage to me, the reply after mine had a bit of sarcasm aimed at me but IMO was fully justified by the contents of the false post

My real concern is that what happened to me can also happen to anyone else.

I sure hope someone in power investigates this not only the HOW but also the WHY!

Meanwhile, I'm planning to uninstall cc for a week......one AVAS uncovered Trojans labeled Download Ruin so Im giving my VISTA and CC a rest......be assured that CC is one of the very best programs I've had and I look forward to my return

Hi Picablu and I also bid you a warm welcome.

Don't worry, you will be a post pro in no time at all ;)

Yea sorry about the sarcasm :) no offense intended I though you might need help with it too,

I thought it was a good example as most new members do posts like that before they figure out how to add text to the reply.
