Well, hey, welcome. Glad to have you aboard.
The thing that folks seem to want to know how to do first is make quote boxes, like this:
Jeez, i feel like a virgin again... i have no idea what i'm doing but with some assistance from the old timers i'm sure to get into the swing of things..
To see how this is done you can hit "edit" below my post and see the codes, or if you're composing a reply you can click where it says "UBB Code is ON" beside the text box. Go ahead and try it in this thread; it's the practice thread so no one will care.
