Ok, need help here...

I am confused! Yep - I admit it! I walk around all day long in a daze and then I dial into PTO and all is well again!

Then the worst thing happens! I dial into PTO and I cannot figure out why some posts or threads have paper clip attachment icons beside them and I cannot find an attachment!

Most of the time it indicates a picture attached? This is cool, I can figure that one out!

Now I am perplexed because sweetlove's intorduction has a paper clip icon and I cannot find that attachment!

Now, the rational part of my mind says that this is a bug! Oh goodness NO!

But in looking very closely at the thread I have also wondered if this is Toe's flashing lights in his response?????? Toe is this you that creates this paper clip icon and made me spend precious minutes studying this thread to find an actual attachment? If it is, I forgive you! I just need to know!

Help!

The little envelopes? Some have a lock on em, which means a closed thread. Some have little lines coming out the top, which means it's stuck to the wall, sticky. Some look like a camera, it's a seal, not like a circus animal....like a seal on an unopened envelope, means you haven't gandered at that thread yet.

I moved it for you Ken;)

I was smiling when I read this because I had the same question...only after what?...my 1000th post! I asked the other moderator's and here is where you can find the "Key" to what the envelopes mean: They are located at the botton of the 1st page of a forum (thread listings)...so for instance go to the Front Office and look at the bottom of that page and you'll find the "key"

Also about the attachments...Yep, most likely this is the work of Toe's creativity which we all have come to love and look for!!:p

I KNEW it was Toe! But Toe, you said above - here is another one but there is no paper clip on this post!

You are slipping my friend! LOL Don't get me wrong Toe, I love your posts and your attachments - just trying to figure this out!

You know you don't have a life when the biggest thing on your mind is a paper clip!
