New Member Introductions

[Kalamain]

Can someone tell me how individuals get an actual image on their replies to show up and not the link? Does that make sense?

You want an icon image to click rather than a text link to the image... Yes?

Ok...It is possible but not everywhere supports it. I use ImageVenue to host my images for here.

So I can do this.



I bet other places can do it too... But this is what *I* do.

I gather getting an avatar after 100 posts is the picture on the profile?

Its the picture under your name on the left. I think its 100 posts, yes... Not sure though

Also, are images protected here or can they be uploaded by whomever wants them?

The images you upload to the forums need to be regulated. I would suggest uploading images to an outside host and linking to them.

There are fairy strict rules on posting pictures. I'd suggest having a quick read before posting anything to save time later.

I'm new here to forums in just the past couple of weeks, so thanks ahead for your help!

You are very welcome and I hope you have an awesome time!

Hello!

I'm a 28 year old woman, married less than a year. My husband has no sex drive. I'm trying to find less destructive ways to vent my energy than cheating, but until I do, tips on how to not get caught would be nice. I keep beginning stories, but I don't have the attention to detail a proper author should have, so maybe honing my skills would be a good outlet for me while I try to figure out my personal life.

Well... The best way to not get caught is to not cheat.

As a male in your situation I understand your problems. Been married 18 years and Not had sex in.... Yeah...At least 3 times longer than you have been married.

As to writing I can't help you. I can barely write my own name without losing the plot! Maybe you should try giving a much shorter story a go? Maybe a poem or some other form of outlet? (Letter writing?)

As to sorting out your personal life... I tend to go with the flow!

Yeah, the cheating thing is something I'm working on. I have poor impulse control, and when even a vibrator is considered cheating, it's hard to keep saying no to the flirt at work.

I think if I had no sexual contact for 3 years I would actually go insane. As it stands, I'm having really awful mood swings and falling into depression bc of the lack of sex.

I've been keeping a rough diary, so I may post bits of it in the feedback forum for suggestions on improvement. Hopefully that'll take the edge off enough that some of the tension drops.

And don't worry, I'm not expecting or hoping any of you to fix my life. That's something only hubby and I can work out!

Get a therapist willing to boink you at the office. Its common.

That sounds like paying for sex, which is silly when I can get it free from my coworkers when I decide I need it.

Whats wrong about paying for it? Plenty of my came to therapy with money woes, and left richer. You'd be amazed at how many women will for $200 and no one the wiser.

28 year old woman here. Married for 4 years, together for 8. We have an infant son. Husband is super stressed out from work and I watch too much porn for my own good. I'm an artistic person. I dabble in art, crochet and photography. Portraiture freaks me out a little. I like getting down in the dirt for the right nature shot/wild animals, that sort of thing. I'm a pretty shy, reserved person.

Welcome!

Although I will admit I had to Google what "Portraiture" was!

And can you watch too much porn?! *Closes Pornhub Tab*

Just joined today

Hello all! I'm a 46 year old man and new to online forums. I've always been curious and interested in erotica and more recently fetish.

I'm looking forward to reading the forums and learning more...also interested in more experiences of fetishes.

I'm reading 50 shades of grey now and I guess that has stirred my curiosity and desire...

Welcome!

First thing I would suggest is putting down the 50 shades and read good smut.

 

[CapFun]

Thanks K!

 

[LastLostIdols]

Hey there. I've been reading this site for years but only been a member since last year & just become active now. Yesterday had my first story posted, link's in my sig if anybodies interested.

My writing has been described as rather unorthodox, I suppose that translates quite badly into erotica but I don't want to just write quick smut, so I don't think my stories will be very popular. But this seems like a good strong active community and it's a good place to showcase and improve my writing.

So yeah, hi all.

 

[TossHerSalad]

Howdy from the Northwest USA...

Howdy, I'm in my mid-50's, married almost 30 years. Recently I've managed to transform what was a nearly sexless marriage into a hot, mutually satisfying love life that's spilled over into every part of life.

I've always been "her first" oriented... it's a big part of my enjoyment. And finally my wife appreciates it. Again and again. (If you know what I mean...)

I'm a writer (not erotic though, another day perhaps...) and live in the Pacific Northwest. I'm also a fanatical researcher when it comes to satisfying my wife. And the forums here seem to be rich with info, I'm grateful to all who share... and I hope to return the favor.

Intro

Do people read these or are they kind of lost in the ether? Hopefully the former.

I'm a 35 yr old female from the Midwest. Looking for...something. Not sure exactly what. I crave intelligent conversation and ample attention. So I guess that's my initial answer. Looking forward to being more involved in the forum!

Nobody reads them. I am a result of a bad cheese sandwich you had before bed that you don't remember eating.

If you are not sure what you are looking for.... Are you looking for this tub of buttons?

Oh....And welcome to the forums!

I put "Midwest" to be intentionally vague.

sorry, no disrespect.
i'm originally from michigan so its nice to find others who have lived in the economic no-mans land and lived to tell about it.

hope you find a way to clear the fog surrounding what it is you're looking for.
chances are, you can either find it here or find someone who can point you in the right direction

Hi All...almost 'Newbie'here

I skipped this part of introducing myself, so I jumped in two weeks ago when a friend suggested I check out the forums. I've had 3 stories published however in 2010 and am hoping to have a few more with the help of a new friend here. But I'm a BBW-Dangerous curves ahead type gal and enjoy myself here immensely.

I think you're all great fun and I'm enjoying myself in a variety of ways!
I'd like to add my 2 cents in about a couple things mentioned here. To the guy reading 50 Shades of Grey; man, there are stories and conversations that can titillate and teach much faster than that! Yawn! Lol Also I agree too, can you view too much porn?? Ha! I think not!!

Newcummers, you'll love it here! Don't just stick a toe in, immerse yourself!

Hello, and thanks for the welcome.

I'm pretty new to actually being a member on here, though I have been reading the stories for a few years. I've decided to try to make the leap from reading the stories to trying to write stories. At this point I have a lot to learn about navigating the site as a member and how to actually submit a story.

As for hobbies, I like to read, ride my bike, hiking, photography and hopefully soon, writing. I'm not currently in a relationship, though I do occasionally go on dates.

As far as what I hope to get from this forum is any advice at all concerning writing and posting on this site.

Just signed up earlier. 18/F/FL. I've visited here several times and figured I'd go ahead and sign up and see what kind of trouble I can get into.

I'm Larry. I'm 29, single, and work as a fire fighter in Illinois.

Mainly, I'm looking to meet and talk (steamy conversations and non-steamy) with some of the ladies. However, I'm looking forward to getting to know everybody here.
