Ok, maybe I am an idiot, but how do you put your signature permanently on all posts. It's late and I have a preschooler and toddler, not much sleep for me.

Click on your Username or look at the top and click on profile.  Both will get you there.

Then click on modify profile.  It has your account info and you can change things in there on your own profile to your hearts content.  That is also where you put in your avatar, if you have chosen one.

Happy profiling. ;D

If you will send me the location of the avatar, where you got it from on the net.  I will try to fix it for you.

The password........ :o.......OMG what an evil little contraption it is.

As long as you remember your password you should not have to change it every time.  I have not changed mine since coming on the site.  (And no one could even guess it anyway, so have at   ;D  )

The password has to be case specific.  If you capitalize it the first time, you have to do it each time.  I leave mine in lower case.

If you told your computer to remember  your name and your password, that could be the problem.  If you put it in wrong once, it comes back up with another log in and makes you put both your user Id and your password again and won't let you in till you get it right.  That happens to me on my home computer, but not my work computer.

I suggest you not keep changing your passwords every day, then maybe you can remember it better. :P ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

When I first signed in it asked me how long I wanted to be signed in for - I put forever.  Now I never have to sign in (unless it's for a chat room).  I did this for both my home computer and my work computer.
