musicgirl:

you have to make a certain number of posts to this forum before you can personal message and then you have to make another certain number of posts before you can include a web address in any of your posts.

I searched around to find the exact information -- but I couldn't. I'm sure somebody on here must know that. If you contact one of the administrators I'm sure they'll tell you.

to the best of my knowledge -- I think it was 5 posts will get you the ability to personal message someone. The personal message someone you just click on their name - and it just you the option to personal message.

I was confused by this issue also. hopefully somebody else will help out.
