Thank you, Kelly, as you can see, it worked...the link, I mean, and I got it done. I use the zoom on my windows 7 and sometimes I just don't pan/scroll enough to find things, sorry...I'll try to look harder after this. I appreciate your help.

I will try to help you but I'm not sure of all the specific instructions for how to do things so please excuse me if my explanations are less than stellar.

1. To add a sparkfriend to your page, visit others pages and click the button in the top right hand of their page that says "add _______ as a sparkfriend". This will add them to your page and notify them that you have added them

2. To have your picture show up when you post I think you need to add a main profile picture. You can do this under the edit your sparkpage option. There are little boxes that show up to the right and the first box should indicate your profile picture (I think...)

3. You can add the little ticker on the edit your sparkpage option as well. It's down at the bottom and you have to first choose to show it and then it will give you the option of changing your ticker and the ruler thing.

I know these weren't the best instructions but I did them from what I remember. Good Luck!!

I know there are millions of FAQs, but for some reason, I can never find the one I want.I have a pic on my sparkPage, but it doesn't appear when I am on message boards...??..I would love to add friends to my page, but uh, don't know how,..and I would like to have one of those cute little turtle, or froggy strips at the bottom of my posts showing my progress..I thought it was called a streak, and found streaks, but it wasn't that,...I'm pretty savvy with puters, but I seem to be all over the place here,.........and I love Sparkpeople, I think it is the neatestt thing, LOVE the tracker,.........it makes me feel like I have a positive result every day, not just hopefully on weigh day.
So, if anyone can help me with some 'stuff', holler out....
Sue
