I have been messing about the site a lot today and found a few little things I never knew were there, shows how much I look at the site without actually seeing whats there.
For instance I found a button which shows all the attachments I have posted, not really sure what the use of this is :o but I got to look at a few photos of my old horse anyway.
There must be more features that people arent aware of, does anyone else want to share one? Another example is the way you can get a little Microsoft box pop up when you get a PM, only discovered that one a few months ago I think.

You can get a spellchecker for your web browser with the Google toolbar:

Like that??
You just click the Quote button on the post you want to quote and delete the stuff you don't want, well thats what i do.

Domane... user cp, attachments (in the blue menu to the left). I didn't know that either katieB and I've just freed up 38.5kb of forum space deleting my old attachments!
The pop up notification is in user cp too (edit options in the blue menu to the left).
I never realised you could create new folders for private messages :o

Amazing what you find when you start poking about! Did you know you can track private messages to see if they've been read or not?

Tick the box at the bottom where it says request a read receipt when you send the message, then you can check it in 'Track messages' in blue on the left hand side. I haven't tried it, I only just found out it would do it! Look up 'private messages' in FAQ for more info.
