   I've been prevented from posting a few times saying I've exceeded the number of posts for spamming (and I'm not spamming - just chatting).  Anyone know why?

I'm also wondering how to set up the pictures & signatures.

THanks!

	Someone with more experience can give you more clear details, but my understanding is that you can't post more than once every minute or so. Either contact an admin to find out the specifics or just test it out yourself. I ran into this problem when I would post really short answers to multiple threads one after another. I just changed my viewing habits a little (and then got too busy with a new baby!) and it wasn't a problem anymore. Hope that answer helps!

	Like asvueldo said, you can only post so many times every minute; if it says that to you, just wait a minute and start posting again. And the pictures and signature are handled through the control panel, under "Edit Profile". After you click on that you'll see where you can type in your signature, and you can post a link to your avatar from photobucket or snapfish or some such; there's also an image testing forum at the bottom of the forums list where you can try out your avatar and get advice on how to fix it. HTH!
