Thank you all for the welcome into the board. I am sorry that it took me so long to get back with everyone, but I am having a very hard time finding out how to do board the right way. My husband finally helped me find the right place. Am I suppose to use "new user" for the title all the time in the main section or something else. I am very confused about where to go to and how to make my post.
:roll:
Thanks Everyone, Shawn

The "Main" section is for questions and comments about quilting. It's best to give your post a title that reflects your question, or the content of your post, so people can skim the title and see if they want to click on your post and read the contents.

There is another section where you can "Introduce Yourself".

You can see all the sections here:
http://www.quiltingboard.com/

Your husband should show you how to bookmark that location so you can easily get back to it.

Shawn,
It depends on what you want to post. Yes, this site is a bit complicated. It has taken me a while & I still don't know all the bells & whistles. If you click on the "Home page" you will see the different categories the QuiltingBoard has. If you click on each one, you will see the kind of posts that are in the category. There are moderators of the site that are always there when your unsure of how to do something.

Welcome to the board!

You don't have to put "new user" as your title of each of your post. It automatically shows your status title "new user" under your name. You can see each person's status under their name. You can put whatever title you choose for your posts no matter if you are new or a regular here. Pick a title that has to do with the subject so they can be easily found it someone is searching for that topic.

I know you are going to be just fine. You have a great start. Just keep talking and asking questions and all will be well.
