living mountain Posted June 8, 2009 yep- nice creation- often i find that the forums are thoroughly "said-" so lurking, as yinny as it may be, allow for the space not generally noticed on forums and blogs. but without the white background, these black letters would be lost. funny that to increase "rank" on the forum, you have to contribute- but i guess both of those things end up on the yangy side of the hill.. discussions filled up answers swirling through ether no need for another word!

Tabula Rasa Posted June 9, 2009 (edited) yep- nice creation- often i find that the forums are thoroughly "said-" discussions filled up answers swirling through ether no need for another word! so lurking, as yinny as it may be, allow for the space not generally noticed on forums and blogs. but without the white background, these black letters would be lost. funny that to increase "rank" on the forum, you have to contribute- but i guess both of those things end up on the yangy side of the hill.. Now there's a great idea for a Tao Bum member feature....an option in "my controls" to choose whether one becomes a Tao Bum by increasing post count, or by time passed in membership without posting anything! *** Thanks for bringing my typo to my attention, evZENy! I edited to fix "with" to "without". Edited June 9, 2009 by Tabula Rasa Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
evZENy Posted June 9, 2009 whether one becomes a Tao Bum by increasing post count, or by time passed in membership with posting anything! Better yet - time in reading and posting nothing :-)? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tabula Rasa Posted June 11, 2009 Anyone care to help me learn how to add photos and youtubes to a post, since for some lame reason I haven't been able to figure it out yet? Thanks much, Carol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
living mountain Posted June 11, 2009 Anyone care to help me learn how to add photos and youtubes to a post, since for some lame reason I haven't been able to figure it out yet? Thanks much, Carol in the post editor, there is the "bold"symbol, etc; just right of the text color, is a globe/chain image (link); then a picture of a tree: use this for uploading images. as for embedding youtube, i am not that techhy.. btw, i started a post string in the "Tech Support" section of the site- on the bottom of the main page.. called "How Do I.." hopefully this would be a good place for answers to come to us from the great beyond.
