This is as good a place as any to post comments and questions about how the forum is set up so far! I have only sketched in a good start with the sections people will expect to find. And I have taken a few liberties with how I see the backpack experience as a plan for forum structure! I will explain. So there's not much to see, just poke buttons and see if it's all pretty clear. Note that PMs are a feature you may already know, but here you tap a member's name and get their Profile, in there you see on the right "Send a Message". There is also a Gear icon in every post; tapping that drops a menu with a way to send a Message (PM) to the author. That PM shows up as a white bubble above the Messages link in the top area, under the Backpacker logo. I'll assume you saw the link back to BP's main Home page, so bookmark THIS URL and you have a round-trip ready for next time.

Edit: no

Excellent question. Yes there is, but I need to go find out how since I haven't done it. Stay tuned, I'll be right back!

BTW, I love being able to be Zeke, instead of Old Zeke. I may still be old, but posters do not need to include that descriptor when addressing me.

Is there a way to lock in my color? I think you're pretty much born with it, Michael Jackson notwithstanding.

Is there a way to sort threads/topics by time (most recent update)? I don't see it, but I could be stupid.

Threads ("Boardss" in Proboard speak) do not sort by age, but replkies IN the thread are added at the bottom. You have two new places to see what's gone on in your absence: very bottom of the Home page see Redent Topics and Recent Posts. Also as the list of replies gets added to at the bottom, there is a note to the right of the Category name showing the latest added comment. Hope that made sense.
And the Participated list on the right is helpful, showing anything you posted in that has had an update. There are some other tricks but that will get you started. Oh yes, the SEARCH funcytytion really works.Mirabile dictu

You're going to need a "How To" thread, so dummies like me can post pics and do links.

That's a great idea. I wish I'd..., oh wait, I did! Look to the top of the Home page for "How to do things here" Let me know if it isn't clear.
