I figure, if anyone has any advice for dxp if he decides to censor any more words, we should help him with the hardest part of that undertaking, by creating the names for him....(note the slight sarcasm=)

I have a small bunch and I'm always thinking up more so... dxp... if you're not procratinating too much... here's a list to ponder

lolipop
sprinkles
almonds
lawnmower
pringles
pacifist, teddybear (instead of friend)
chicken
... I have more but I won't bore you. Anyway, I had particular swear words associated with each one but, being so classy and refined a lady, I won't repeat them here. However, feel free to interpret them =P

well, i really like the censors as they are, but "go treetrunk yourself" conjures up some very strange images in my mind...lol, so, as previously suggested, maybe "frenchtickle" as a stand in for the f word? Or perhaps, "doorknob", or "sausage" or "steampipe" or "impale" (to add a little midieval flare to the whole site, lol)...and for the b-word, "sugarlips", "cookiemonster", "babycake", "nutmuffin"...nevermind, mine are all stupid, keep the censors as they are, or go with Gwen's suggestions, she's better at this than me. lol.

guess not... of course there is a problem. If I say "I'm going to eat some chicken tonight" people will thinkI mean somethhing totally wrong when I'm just trying to be my sweet innocent self. And if anyone mentions Sesame street... you get the idea... or if I say "I'm going to put some butter on my bread" ... you get the idea...

dxp, Did I miss any of the censored words?

When you're logged in, click on the link at the top of the page that says "Update Your Profile". When you're on your profile page, click on the link on the right hand side of the screen that says " click here to upload photo". It will take you to a new page where there is a button that says "browse"--click that if you'd like to use a picture that you've saved on your computer. I suspect (but wouldn't know for sure cuz I haven't done it this way) that rather than clicking that browse button, you could also write in the box the address of a picture you want to use that you haven't saved on your computer.

Trust me, I know what you mean about being computer illiterate; so am I. I get confused by the "simplest" of things when it comes to computers. Note all the questions I've asked dxp. lol.

If you need me to explain further about how to do this, feel free to ask 🙂

Thanks for the hel pheonix... now for some more suggestions for the dubious dxp... (pardon the alliteration)

the feminine "c" word that is now called "bleep" has lost some of it's trailer park trash in the translation... i'm thinkng more along the lines of "trash-compactor"

the masculine "p" word could perhaps (as long as we have cookieonster) be something like "bigbird" but maybe that inflates the ego too much... maybe "munchkin" or "mickey" is better

the feminine "p" word should be "kitty" but that's too obvious and not funny enough... "danish" was a good one. "earwax" and "toejam" keep coming to mind but I don't think everyone will agree with me on that

the "t" word could be anything but "marshmellow" please! I think something along the lines "grabbag" would be funnier and would bring up interesting images... come to think of it "grabbag" is my favorite... maybeit woul dbe better with something else.. >🙂

just suggestions oh our determined dxp. (pardon the alliteration again- I can't seem to help myself =)
Is anyone seeing any errors when using the message boards or any part the website? I just want to make sure that I'm not letting errors slip through the cracks because I'm not aware of them.

Boy I'm just full of ideas tonight. lol. Okay, I think you should have a place where all the registered users who post on all the boards are listed by member name...also make it so you can then click on someone's member name and view their profile. Also

I just had an idea...maybe dxp could make it so that on the postings next to our member name, we could put a little picture there! Just to visually spice things up a bit, not that the site isn't visually appealing, it is, but just to add a little more in

I think it would greatly improve the website if you would categorize the Astrology boards. For example, instead of just having a whole bunch of postings under each sign about many different things, separate each signs messageboards into categories l
