Hi PrairieGal Welcome to FC!

We have a whole section called Household Hints and Tips where you can post tips. If your tip doesn't fit into one of those categories, you can just go to the forum or subforum - in this case gardening--and post your tip in a new thread. Barbszy is the mod. who collects the tips and she is really good at catching them on the boards!

Once it's been posted, you can always email either one of us and we will make sure that it gets considered for an award.

If you have any questions about it, you can email or PM me about it.

Tami

Hi Prairiegal and welcome!

I would suggest that you visit our gardening forum. If there's a topic that is similar to the topic for your tip, include your tip in that section. If not, start up a new topic Anyone can open up a new topic.

We have a lot of gardeners here at FC and with spring coming, I'm sure they'll be interested in seeing any tips you have.

Hi!
How do you get an award? Do you have to request it, or it just appears when you win it.

I won a Psyclops Ipod cover on 03/13/09.
Could I get one of these pink boxes.
I don't have any awards yet. This would be my first one.

I was very happy today, when I read the FC Newsletter and saw my name mentionned in it. Thank you everyone.

This place is lots of fun.

Question

Can anyone tell me:
How do you make an individual photos album?
I started to make one by posting some pictures of my babies(Cats), and it puts the pictures with everyone else kitties.
Is it how it works?
I was trying to get an other award (like the little camera (sooo cute!))
Can someone help?

I have to set up an individual album for you and then you can fill it.

Give me a few minutes and then click on the link in the gallery for 'individual members albums', scroll down and look for your name - they're in alphabetical order.

I'll move your kitties into your album and give you an icon.

Well, let me rephrase that....

There is some technical work being done in the FC admin. panel right now and I am unable to access it right now. As soon as I can, I will set up an album for you. It might take a few days, though.

Actually Tami does not need to set this up for you, this you can do on your own Please read these instructions to set up your album!

I did it!
Thanks Tami and Amanda for all your help.
I now have my very own place to post my pictures.

One question so: I don't understand the keywords. Can you tell me what the Keywords for your file is?

But, I did it.

You don't have to use the keywords, they are optional. It's basically there if you want to help people find your photos. For example, you named your photo "Zorro" because that's the name of your cat. However, people searching on "cat" or "cat photos" won't find it. So if you add keywords like pet, cat, etc, that just helps when people are searching
