How do I send a PM reply in this new format? TH

Tom,

You can send a private message by clicking on the user name on the right of the message. That will open a pull-down menu where one of the options is to send the user a private message.

If you want to reply to a PM someone sent you, you can do this using the 'Private Messages' link at the left hand corner of the main screen. When you select a PM from the list, there will be a reply button underneath.

Personally Tom, I am unsure how you navigate anywhere with webtv

It just must be so hard to do.

Gerben is correct. Just click on the persons name on the left side of their post and the pull down appears. There is also a "friendship" feature which I have not yet figured out what it is for, sort of an enhancement of the "buddy" feature.... ? ? ?

John, this is the same software as on Jan Still's forum (although .2 versions higher), the friends feature, along with a couple of others is for the yoounger crowd; i.e. like facebook and myspace, folks like to have "friends" and keep track of each other; you can see when someone is on-line etc, my little dot on the lower left is green as I am on-line, gray when off line.

I agree when someone asks me to be their friend, but think its a funny feature, showing my age I guess

Thanks Ed! Just like you... this is more information than I need to know or keep track of...
