How do I... ?
« on: April 02, 2008, 10:12:52 PM »
Howdy all.  I am a new member here and was wondering how to post an avatar.  I have gone to the profile section of the board and I don't see a way to add one.

Thanks in advance

Obviously I figured it out.

Hi!!!!
I can see November 2 from my house!!!

Spread my work ethic, not my wealth.

Forget change, bring back common sense.
-------------------------------------------------

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

Are you going to tell us a little about yourself, or are you gonna leave us guessing?

What would you like to know?

I am a proud conservative American.

I am also a veteran of the 1st Gulf War and a bit of a fanatic about the 2nd Amendment.

Oh...  And I have my 1st grandchild due in about 2 months.   :cheersmate:

Just sayin'.  :-)

Congrats on the grandchild. I'm also a vet, BTW. Many vets on this site. I also run a military board http://www.usmilnet.com

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site

Oh man..

My bad....  I didn't notice the welcome thread.

I'm still getting used to the layout of the site.

What is the deal with the "reputation" that I see next to each posters name?

I see that I am +6/-0.

What does that mean?

It's the Hi-Five and the Bitch-Slap feature.  You like a post, you get to Hi-Five somebody.  If you don't like somebody's post, go ahead and click Bitch Slap.

Here's one to get to you warmed up.  Go ahead, he doesn't mind: http://www.conservativecave.com/index.php?action=profile;u=146

Thanks for the response.  I was wondering what the Hi-five and Bitch slap links were for.

It will be interesting to see my own score after I've posted here for a few months.

Thanks again all.

I've been here for less than 24 hours and I've been Bitch Slapped twice.

What did I do?

Ok...  I suspect I am about to set myself up for more Bitchslaps...  So be it!

Why do so many folks that post here seem to be so concerned about what is posted on DU?

Is it a matter of keeping your friends close and your enemies closer? 

Or is it a matter of making fun of mentally challanged?

Having read a few DU threads linked here...  How can those folks live their lives with such anger and hatred?
