Signatures in Your Profile
« on: August 23, 2011, 12:39:05 PM »
Hey everyone,
I know many of the members post their name in the "Introduce Yourself" forum, but I would suggest that you update your profile with a signature containing your name.
I just think it makes thing more personal when we know each other by name....of course, members that have such a simple handle like "Ron" and "Marty" make things simple  ;D
Personally, I know so many people by their screen name but can't always remember their real name.
What are your opinions?

If you click the "profile" button, and then "account settings" there should be a box that says "name" where you can enter your name if your like.

I also installed a mod last night which should allow you to post your location in your profile.  If you click the "profile" button and then the "forum profile" button, there is a box to put your location.  I would urge everyone to do this, especially if you're selling items.  This will cut down on the inevitable question, "Where are you located?"

I go mine updated last night and noticed that you need to click on my username to view my profile information to see my location. Is there anyway to get the location to be displayed under someones name when they post? I've gone through the user options and can't find it so perhaps there is an admin option?

Lol, I think Tony's trying to make more work for me since I tagged him for the photo contest.  I'll see if I can find something.
