I've noticed most of our board members don't fill out their biographies and I wonder why. It's nice to know a little about each other.

I don't know how

I LOVE reading QB member profiles! I think I'm just newsy.

You go under "My Profile" and go down to the space you want to change, make changes and select update. There you go. You can always try to make it work. Good luck. And lots of members don't want us to know too much. Some are afraid of cyber crimes. Best to be safe.

It is fun checking these out when doing secret swaps. Sometimes very helpful.

Zappycat 12-26-2010 02:46 PM

Good point! I'm guilty of not filling mine out!

CarrieAnne 12-26-2010 06:20 PM

Did you press the Upgrade General Info button underneath the Bio and Signature boxes?

Click on anyone's name written in blue at the left of your screen, including your own. You will see their profile. To change your profile, click on "My Profile" up at the top of the page. Scroll down until you see the section you want to update. Type what you want, but make sure to click the "udate..." button below that section. Otherwise, it will not show up on your profile.

Maybe you won the grand prize and Admin locked yours? Just kidding. But you may want to PM on of the moderators.

leaha 12-27-2010 06:51 PM

I like to check the bio's out because a lot of us have web-shots or what ever and then we can see lots of quilts! get all kinds of lovely ideas, this is a wonderful board!

Maybe you can give us an example of what it will look like. I don't give out too much personal info - cyber thiefs!
