the only problem/advantage of using it on a thread is it will actually load the thread title as the subject title and quote that post in the text. great if you are PM'ing directly on that subject but a lot of deleting if you just want a blank PM so I still use the friend buttons most of the time :)

Well, I never expected quite so much help and comment - thanks to everyone - and for the smiles along the way.

I now realise that I have two ID,s on this forum -dont know why, but my old ID is necessary to get into the members section - this did not help. Once I realised that if I click on a members name its all laid out for me the light came on ! Another thing I never realised that that icon was there OR that it brought up, in italics, the original comment as part of the reply. I always wondered how you lot did that !

As to message/massage my preferred oil is not 20/50, but vegetable, preferably from a bottle marked "Johnsons", but the oil is much less important than the applicator who should be of the female persuasion and (preferably) half my age.Just thought that I would add my technical advice on that point.

you have to do a print screen image (can be alt+ print screen but may be different on some laptop/notebooks) then just crop the pic in paint etc. Then just use a pen tool to highlight the area and of course resize per the :)
