I keep coming back to the community and trying again but I have no idea how to 'post'.  I try to reply to things but although I can type in my message I can't work out how to 'send' it. I was an avid reader of the previous forum but cannot get my head round this - keep thinking it will all become clear but it hasn't so far. Is the problem that I really only have five minute bursts and cannot come to terms with it in that time?  Do I need to allocate a spare day to understand it?This I presume is an intro page, but I am loathe to introduce myself until I know who I am introducing myself to and I cannot get a feel of things at present. I can now only see a 'save' button - I will hit that, but will it send?

 A warm welcome.  Yes it does become a little easier to navigate when you find out where everything is.   However there are elements that I would like to see introduced here if possible, like personal photograohic albums and group set ups as with the previous Forum.  I don't think thhough is possible with the type of software being used.  However I hope I am wrong. regards,  sempre_italia

Hi Flyingpigs,a warm welcome to the new community. Thanks for joining here. Here's a little guide to help you to get started:1. post:  at the end of the page that allows you to create a post, click on the button "save" to send the message. - which is probably what you may have done, since I can read it.2. If you want to introduce yourself to the community, create a post under the topic "introductions" .See example of Introductions here: www.italymag.co.uk/community/category/topic/introductions3. To make a post public be sure not to click on any group.I actually think that the best way to get used to something is to make some practice - as you are doing pretty well.I'm sure that you'll learn more features and like to participate to the CommunityIn any case don't worry.
