To be able to post links or images your post count must be 5 or greater. You currently have 2 posts.

You are only allowed to post URLs to other sites after you have made 15 posts or more.

i still get this

[HayZee518]

OK, give it a shot and see what happens. If it works out then I'll get hold of the admin and put you on as a moderator. - Hayzee

ok. no answer so i guess u folks are not caring but before i go i thought i'd mention that in case you haven't noticed, you have no one answering your grow questions. i can do that and will but not unless i can link and post images And if people can do same for me even if it is their first post; diagnosis without it is just ridiculas and i have no idea how y'all could be getting along that way.

to see me search cakes in yahoo answers and see the images i already put in your gallery.

i give gardening advice online and often link this place as somewhere a person can go with questions.

now that i have joined i see i need 15 posts to link and 5 for images But my posts are Filled with links and images and if i have to make superfluous posts to get the privledges i do not know that i will actually ever get around to it, not to mention i actually know very little except gardening so it is hard for me to think of superfluous things to post. and i Cannot make inferior garden posts...so idk what to do.

Howdy! Just your average computer geek looking at buying an old home. I just love the look of the interiors

Right now I'm looking at a duplex (originally a single family) built in 1913 or thereabouts.

Nice to find a great place to get info and help!

If you want to help others with no ads or pay to you, fine. Ads promoting your site are a no no and will get you kicked real fast!

Hey Im new here. I own my own home repair site so I thought I would get to know some of you around the community. Are sig links allowed if they are not spammy or directly promoting to users? I want to ask before adding one or anything. I own several sites of my own so I always see if I can add links to help with PR and backlinks.

But hi everyone.

Hi from Canada

Really new here. The only forums I've ever posted on before was a free dating site.
I always wondered if there was anything else out here in cyber land.

So, a big HELLO! from me and I'm looking forward to getting answers to my questions, and maybe even helping out someone else in need of an answer.

I'm a Superintendent of a just right size building,(39 apartments), and it has turned out to be a great move for me. I used to do property maintenance for a big management company, and the work was always the same old stuff and never satisfying.

I never thought I would be a Super, but hey, don't knock it till you've tried it. I'm really lucky though, because the management company I work for are great people and very smart as well. They know you just can't rent out a place if it doesn't look nice, so I get two weeks to redo an apt, sometime up to a month. When that happens, I get to have afternoon nap's, and it's ohh so great.Mind you, I do work at night quite often, but hey, I only have to walk up some stairs to get to my job! I turn on my radio and off I go.

Now I pretty much get to pick my own hours, and I get to do all the extras for pay. This includes everything concerning a rental turnover.
I've been doing renovations for years and I'm mostly one of those Jill of
all trades people. LOL If I can fix it myself, then I can get paid for it.
So I do my best at fixing most things, but I leave some stuff to the experts. I really don't want to lay carpets, Or replace entire floors with vct tiles. That's too much like real work for me.

My forte is actually in painting, and I can take a wall that looks like crap and make it beautiful again. I can scim coat a wall with a hawk and trowel, along with the best of them. My most favorite thing to do is Decorative painting and faux finishing, which I don't get to do much of here. BUt.. I do have a huge basement all to myself here, and I have been getting it ready for furniture refinishing and whatnots.

Well, I guess I've gone on long enough. Thanks for reading this far and nice to meet you all.
