I don't know if I should actually do that to all of you fine folks?

As long as you don't have any definitive proof of what my name is ... that offers you all the comfortable option of claiming plausible deniability, should the question ever come up if you actually "knew" who it was you were communicating with.  ;c)

Hi Bret, Sandy and anyone else wanting to change their profile settings, this is now fixed  :)

If you click on the "Profile" tab at the top:

[attachimg=1]

It will take you to this page:

[attachimg=2]

On the left-hand side under the blue "Modify Profile" tab, click "Forum Profile"

And that will give you the option of updating your avatar, location, b-day, etc

[attachimg=3]

and signature further down

[attachimg=4]

I used to run around with a guy that called somebody he just met by any name that popped into his head. "Steve this is Mark. Just met him. Hell of a nice guy."
Kept us laughing all the time. But we were usually drinkin'.

I think I'll be alright, but a good point Jim. As you say it does add a personal touch and helps to build on friendships. 😀

Haven't seen where to do that. Any help is appreciated. My name is Bret BTW.
It should be back shortly Bret, I've sent a message to Gil it will be in your profile settings where an avatar can also be added.  ;)

Great idea, but currently there is no way to change most personal settings.....
I have sent Gil a message about that. I believe he was fixing some other problems and may have accidentally taken away that option.

No panic Nick, it can wait !!.

Jim I agree it’s nice to know who you are communicating too and where they are from.

In the same vein it would be nice to know where you hail from

brilliant idea Jim I love this, it's always better when I know whom I'm talking to 😉

Hi all :)
Can I make a suggestion to everyone?

Could you please put your first name in your signature? It makes so much more personal when you can reply to someone and use their first name.
I know we all pretty much know everyone and most of us are already all friends, but there's a few new faces on the new forum.
