h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I have been a member of h2g2 for along time since last May/June. I have tried to explain how to use this page to my sister but because I am not very intelligent and end up confusing here. When you click onto change preferrences please tell me where in the page will it have update details.

I am very slow at understanding things so please be patient with me. I have still unable to understand how to pictures on my personal space page as no-one has explained it me and if so I have not fully understand and I too frightened to ask again in case people get angry with me. I have always had comprehension skills and I have to things explain to me often before I understand. I know there is no excuse for me not understanding but I do not know much more than a newbie and when I see other peoples pages and they have been on less than I have. I still only basic knowledge about Guideml, no nothing about adding pictures, I cannot understand how put links in GuideMl, although I have been here since May, I am no position to help a newbie as hardly no anything myself. I still need help, so will you please help me on adding pictures to my page, using GuideMl, it is not because I am too lazy to read the explainations but I am not as quick as understanding things like others are here. Please help me to overcome these problems I have with using h2g2.

Hi JA

Plain skin first

It isn't on the preferences page unless you use the link:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/plain/UserDetails

If you or your sister click on the link then all you need to do is click on update at the bottom of that page, because your preference will indicate plain

GuideML is a little trickier.
I'll open a thread on your space

mmmmmm.... some confusion there... as long as the newbies go to the plain skin entry and click on the frame/link there, they will get into preferences and be able to change for plain...

all that needed is to give the A number to the newly arrived LDers... that's the idea behind this entry: so that we don't need to type the link again and again as well as the explanations... imagine having to do that in a busy day... you wouldn't have any time for yourself... especially after having typed the numbers for the LDers space and the FoLDers Arms...

giving these numbers are already a big help for the newly arrived LDers as at least they will know where to go for help...

talk soon...

I was also talking about myself as I know very little on using h2g2 ie GuideMl, how to add pictures, adding links when using GuideMl to entries or my own page. There are lot other things I cannot understand as when I came here in May/June no-one helped me and I still do not know much. I find even people who have been on for 2 months know more than I do. Please is there anyone who help me even though I am not a newbie.

katrine: i think kow said he will start a new thread for that on your page...

this entry is really only for the plain skin issue... talking about different subjects here could confuse other people... especially newly arrived LDers...

we will use another thread/convo to explain what you need to know....?!



talk later...
