    Hi Folks!!!
    Let me put this into perspective, I thought that computers were going to be a fad so I paid no attention to them and now every time I'm using one it is VERY painful. Well I joined you all earlier this week and started by sending a message (think that it is called a thread not sure) to the wrong site, some of you helped me (thanks) and told me to move it on to the "main board" that was 5 days ago and I am still trying to find it. I have missed work no sleep out to beer and the list goes on and on, sorry!! Is there a help section that I can go to and read up on how to use H.A.M.B., move thru the differant areas i.e. tech. questions, to talk about things that members are doing and so on. In the mean time I've got a lost message with 3 or so questions that I can't find, if you see it send it to me.
    Many Thanks for your help!!!

    Don't worry about the small stuff. Just listen to the directions that are given, do what you can to follow them, and if needed ask questions as you go.

    The internet is different every place you go out here, and there are lots of things to learn about. Different types of websites, different personalities, etc.

    Take your time, don't freak out and just keep up on it. It's not going away and if you just stick with it and don't run away, there's a lot you can learn from it.

    HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Computers are FUN, huh Steve?

    Most of your questions are or can be answered in the "Questions and Suggestions" section.

    If you need help, PM me. Oh...I might be ***uming...here's how:

    Click on my screen-name...that'll take you to my profile-page. Click on my name again...that'll make a drop-down menu appear...click on "Contact Information"...options to send an email or PM (personal message) will appear...click on that. Name your message...won't work without one...then type your question/comments. When your done, click on "Submit Message", and give it a few seconds, 'till it says it's sent. Don't get impatient, and click "Send" again, 'cause then two PMs will be sent.

    Good luck with everything. Believe me...it'll get easier, the more you're here.

    Just bump around and explore for a while. Don't get upset if you get flamed once in a while, think of it as a right of p***age of sorts. Take some......Give some and be sure to keep your tray in it's upright and locked position before logging in:D
