Post Bux, Gifts and Bank! Oh My!

So, you may have noticed a few changes to the site this morning. You’ll see things like Points, Bank and Total Points in the purple bar next to your post count…as well as little gift icons and awareness ribbons underneath.

Currently, I am working on getting all of the aspects of this gifting/option buying system working. Members who have free accounts will be allowed to buy a couple of the premium features, like flood control options.

Premium members have a TON more options, like formatting their user name as well as the user title.

Currently, I’m working on a few things – so just hang tight – ask questions if you have them and I’ll update you all in a bit.

Okay, I'm probably retarded, but exactly how do you put the color you want like you did with your user title or making it glow? I mean like do you just put purple in the box or is there special color codes or names you're suppose to use?

Regarding the Wiki - check the forum for the Wiki thread

As for colors - you can type in the color name or the color code - it should work either way. Test it and let me know.

As for earning points - just about everything you do on the forum will earn you points. Posting, uploading photos, viewing posts, rating threads, inviting other peope to join, having a birthday, loging in regularly, being a long time member...

Plus lots more things

You also earn 1000 points for buying a premium membership.

timni; could you round up all the spare change in your house, cash it in and use the 20 bucks for that? That's what I do when Josh and I have a disagreement on money. I find enough in change. LOL. We have three separate change jars. LOL. One is his. One is mine. One is ours. LOL!

Good idea, but all the spare change in our house goes into Belle's bank account. I would feel like I was robbing her hmm maybe she can donate to the happy mom fund and pay for my membership
