It takes a bit of getting used to, but if you click on Private Messages at the top, then scroll down a little, you will see any messages there. Just click on the message title, underlined in blue, and you will see the message.

Gillie, it is not a new site, just they have changed the page where you get your messages. They are now clumped together, and I cannot work out how to get to read them. Any help would be appreciated. thanks.

It gets confusing, but once you have done it a couple of times, you'll be fine. We all had to get used to it, there is so much on it.

Hi, I've just popped back from there. Been trying to work out how to do a pretty signature. Don't understand the bit about uploading it. Where do you upload it from please? I've only been there two days and I've taken lots of wrong turnings and got lost! Janet :-)

I keep having problems getting in and have to have new passwords sent, don't think I will bother tonight,will stay on here. Had a look last night but didn't find it easy to understand how to get round, so glad I am not the only one having difficulty. Not sure I will like it altho miss some of the people who used to be here. I do like those that have stayed tho lol Think you are stuck with me! Liz Janet, thanks, will try to get on tomorrow, have been busy with other stuff tonight.

If this is the site im thinking of Can I suggest you contact a moderator on the site for help,, or post a thread asking for help on the site ? I personally dont find the site difficult to navigate, there is a forum jump at the bottom of the screen, and I find the message system easy enough. I'm a member of both sites and find both sites have their own individual qualities, sometimes regardless where you are, being new, sometimes getting used to new things is difficult. Elaine x

If I can find my way round it I would say most people could. I'm not known for my aptitude on the PC Gwynne

Like most new things it takes a bit of getting used to, but I find it pretty easy to find what I want. Practice makes perfect! Jeanette x
