Like Cheffy said, you need 30 posts to get "experienced", and then another 470 to be a "literotica guru."

The thing is, there is no such thing as a dumb question, only questions that sound dumb.

At the risk of sounding dumb...

So...okay...

At the risk of sounding dumb (as opposed to asking dumb...lol) how do you quote another post inside a post? I see ya'll do it all the time, and I haven't been able to wangle it yet.

Or was that your way of trying to politely tell me to stop using you to gleen Literotica posting info?

Madame Pandora you click this icon

at the bottom of each post, and that way you'll get a message window opened where the text you want to quote is already in.

You can also remove those parts of the text that you aren't interesting, but be careful not to delete any of the codes that stand in [ ] brackets, or the brackets themself.

What I wanna know is how Shy Guy manages to get that little icon in that says Post or Mail or Profile, I just dont know how he does that and it impresses me so much.

The icons are just GIFs, and he posts them just like you do smilies. The trick is finding the address, and I'll let him keep that secret if he wants.

BTW, MP, saying I'm your "favorite opinionated old fart" is like me calling my sister "my little sister." She's 3 years older than I am, but she's the onliest sister I have, so she's my "little sister"

I'm not trying to discourage you from asking questions, just pointing out that you shouldn't apologize for asking them.

 

[Merelan]

Please, ask away. I am following taking notes.
besides, if it keeps Harold here I don't care what you ask.

LOL...okay, WH, I'll refrain from calling you my favorite until you get some competition. I was just saying thanks for answering so many of my newbie qs

If I'm getting the hang of this then basic HTML codes show up in these posts...which is kinda cool. So we have the ability to make things

BOLD
italics
underlined

But not different colors and sizes ;( Oh well, we can't have it all, I suppose

Now...to figure out that inserting icons thingy....

MP you're using the link http://members.aol.com-madamepandora-images-saturn.gif when you're trying to post the image, and the correct way to type it is http://members.aol.com/madamepandora/images/saturn.gif

So when you do it right, it should look like this

Thanks Shy

I edited my post and it worked right well ;-)

When I copied the link in my browser it must have pasted the / symbol as - for some reason. Go figure.
