Pontiac1976 ;Well first I like to say I'm not the a computer wizard that some thing every one learns.
I found that most people who can get around on a board have trouble fixing or adding stuff, like a short note a little info they forget to add in the post.
This applies to most boards that let you some do not but most will let you
fix or edit your own post. The thing that not all boards are the same set up, or they they pretty close but use different word that mean the same thing.
Now every one does not want to look like a person that does not know how post the right way or fix the sort of easy things.
this board looks very hard but if you take your time look at things play with it a bit look how things are or where they are, it get a lot easier.
I to thought this was a little hard because the board was set up a Little different, I new how to do most of the basic stuff. After I started looking around I noticed this board is set up pretty easy most of it for a person to find stuff or locate with a little searching, Topic Name, Person Who Posted it, or Under the Part Topic that it Should be in.
OK

after you login go to home at the top, pick the right topic heading where your post will fit in or should go ( look at all topic heading then pick on or read a few to see if it should go there.)

Click on the ---->>>> MARK as READ tab NEW THREAD tab NEW POLL tab. New thread this lets you start a new message fill in the topic name then your message or how to IE if it about how you like the fenders from the 1973- 1980 better then the 1981- 1987 because the markers have nicer style. write & post pic about it.
NOW this is where you can look good.
At the bottom of your post there is four tab buttons.The first one is POST MESSAGE tab PREVIEW tab SPELL CHECK tab RESET tab. You will use the first three the most.
Click on the SPELL CHECK first if you think you spell any thing wrong, the best is the PREVIEW click there to see if you post looks good or your pic came out right so people can see them once your happy with the way you did it ( oh you can do this a few time if you like if you for got a part miss a word missed up a link) then click on the POST MESSAGE.
Now your message is there for all to see.
lets say you have a extra pic you want to include a week later that show a detail better or something to do with the post there .
