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

Welcome, welcome, welcome, to the wonderful Community of H2G2 (otherwise known as hootoo - you will see this word a lot). This is not an automated message, I am an <./>ACE</.>, and I'm here to help you settle into your new home

H2G2 is a living, breathing guide to Life, the Universe and Everything. It's something YOU can take part in. You can write entries on all manner of subjects, and if it's something you think would look good in our Edited Guide (where all the best research goes), you can submit it to Peer Review. Take a look at the <./>writing-guidelines</.> for more information on that

I've created a little list of links, just for you, so click on A4992357 and have a look at them (actually the links are my daughter's... but, hey oh, Hootoo is one big family!)

If you click on each link, they will take you to parts of hootoo no sane person should ever go alone on this site.....

......but, as it seems no one here is sane, it doesn't matter does it?

Have a look around, pop into my personal space and read some of the conversations that I have on the go at the moment and you will see how things work. Don't be frightened to jump in on conversations, hootooers don't bite.

If you get lost shout for help, hopefully, I'll be around to give you a hand. In case I'm not, just leave a message here <./>ACE</.> and someone will be with you just as soon as they can.

Remember, I'm here to help.

Hi Barbara,

To use the avatar facility you need be signed in to your BBC iD, then go to the iPlayer http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer

There are four Tabs on the screen - click on the 'friends' and look at the line which says 'connect to your friends to see recommendations from them.'

Click on 'Get Started', which gives a screen that will allow you to edit a profile picture.

This area is pre-moderated, and won't be allowed until the picture has been approved. Also, it won't been seen properly until the new system is launched.

As for changing the colours in your Personal Space, I could give you the codes, but as we will all be using the new Barlesque system shortly, the code is likely to become obsolete within weeks

I have a feeling that I will have a lot of work to do on my own Personal Space, as some codings appear to go awry when viewed via the Beta thread. So we are all likely to be in the same predicament

Enjoy your hootooing, it can be VERY addictive!
