I'm new, and did an intro elsewhere. I'm on a lot of other boards, and they all have something to click, that brings me up to date if I've been gone for a while, whether it be hours or days. Some boards have a "user CP" (control panel). And, if you click that when you return, it shows only threads that you're involved with that had activity since the last visit. Anything like that here ("my favorites" or something)? Thank you

Click ACTIVE TOPICS on the top right,then click on the topics that show an arrow next to their title.
Anything w/o an arrow,means no replies since you last viewed them.

Unless there's better ways...
In your 'My Home' there's a 'Favourite topics' you can save threads you want to check back on...
Also anytime you click on your own or other's user names in existing threads by clicking on the bottom 'Show all user's posts' box shows that user's past postings..
So if you save at least one thread you've posted on in your Home 'Favourite topics' you can always click on it then your own user name then the 'Show all user's posts' box to show your past postings..

Again if there's better ways...

PS - How's your '60 Chevy fit so tight to the shop roof?.

[/ QUOTE ]Thanks, man. I'm sure I'll get the hang of it after a few good nudges in the right direction. The shop roof...? I modified it to accommodate my hoist (see link)
