    I've made a couple of posts, and can't figure out how to edit my own post. I know it's done, because I've seen edited posts. So, what's the secret? I can't find a help guide, there's no "edit" button, and doing a search on the forums didn't come up with a how to. What am I missing?

    at the end of your post theres a little icon next to the [bold] Report an offensive post[/bold]

    Click that icon and you can edit your post.

    andmerr,
    Last I knew, code was set for newbies and juniors not to be able to see or use the Report an offensive post.

    GT50,
    you must be logged in, and when you view one of your posts, there should be a little icon on the top right side of your post that looks like a tiny pencil on paper. Click it to edit your post.....

    "when you view one of your posts, there should be a little icon on the top right side of your post that looks like a tiny pencil on paper."

    Thanks zippyd. I see it now. Boy, it's hell getting old! I mistook it for the PM icon on all the other posts.

    hey haimback - dont take this as me jumping your ass or anything but if you dont know the answer to the guys question, there's reall no sense in posting that now is there? think about the mess if everyone did that, we'd have a thread started, then a few hundred thousand "i dont know" replies. just a thought.
