Some topics have an icon on the left side of a topic which looks like a page with a corner turned down and has a direction arrow to the left. It is not shown in the legend of the bells. I scrolled to the bottom of the page for the first one I saw and there were no extra pages. What does this icon mean? Thanks, Ginny

GSM, don't take this wrong, but that's clear as mud! (...feature from forum for poster to express their topic (s) to viewer...) ?????? I have no idea what that means. I'll go with 'nothing' though! Tks, Ginny

Yes, that was the one. Figured it must mean something. How did you do that picture in the link. My son is a forum guru, but he's not here. I understand how to post a link but not how you captured it. (Off the subject I know, however, I'm interested in almost everything!) LOL! Ginny

Sorry, I didn't include this: I do NOT feel harassed, just not understanding. Appreciate all the help I can get. This last week has been my first foray into a forum. Ginny

for the arrow, if you click on that arrow, forum will take you straight to the LAST reply ... some topic long more than 5 pages, this will save your time to read through every page ... hope this will make you more understand :wink:

I have no idea but I am the least computer literate of all!! I think it is trial and error and thank goodness for all the members and mods here who are computer savvy and teach us about this program!! Who would have ever thought we would have to know all of this to sew when I took Home Ec in 7th grade?! That is dating myself!
