Default Help Why is it so hard to navigate around this site???

I don't get it at all. I h ave spent the last 2 months trying to figure out this site. Half the time it tells me I have the wrong password or login. I use the same one everywhere so don't know what that is about. So I got fed up and came up with a new one. I can now get into the forum here but I can't post in the gallery. Why is it so difficult? Shuldn't it just be one login and one password and that is it. I think that would be way simpler. I think that I have shown great tenacity to hang out and keep trying for the last 2 months but I am getting worn down.

ok don't despair. Basically it is 3 different departments. the community, gallery and shop. You have to regsiter in all 3. Once done that's it. then it s easy. I can remember feeling very confused in the beginning.

So please, persevere cos it is really worth it.

Don't give up, Barb! I keep the same log in & password for each department. It is confusing until you get used to it. We would love to see more of you around here!

That's true Mel - if you tick the "remember me" box then it makes it much easier to pop in and out.

Another trick I would be lost without is to click on "new posts" everytime I visit the Community. That way I never miss a post.

Thanks Debbie and Katie.

I am so challenged. LOL. I think that Katie has fixed it for me. I am off to try it.
