Default Where Can I find Challenges

I know this is probably the wrong place to post this, but I am looking for something to challenge me and give me something to work for (short term) I see lots of colored banners and fun icons at the bottom of many posts and wonder

1. Where do I find the current challenges being offered?

2. How can I get the weight slide on my posts?

3. Where do all the other icons come from?

Sorry if this is posted somewhere elese, but I haven't yet found it.

Besides, I'm on Day 2 of Induction and feeling a little loopy....

Thanks!

Liz

Well, you will feel a little loopy at first. It's called Induction Flu and your body is detoxing. You may get headaches too, but they will leave after a few days.

1. At the top of this page you will see in dark blue two rows of words, you need to click on FORUMS and a list of all the forums on here will appear. Look for EXERCISE CHALLENGES, CHALLENGES, ETC.

2. Again, at the top of this page you will see in dark blue two rows of words.... you need to click on TICKERS to make you weight slide.... just follow the instructions. If you get stuck, there is a forum on here for technical problems where you can post a question and get help.

3. A lot of the icons are awarded for challenges. Some you can import yourself. Again, look under the tech help forum and they will explain how to import what you want. I use Photobucket here on the web to put my photos in and bring them here. It's pretty simple. It's free, you can sign up there and import photos here.

There is also a SEARCH tab where you can find most anything you're looking for. Just type in what you're searching for.

Play around with the tabs at top. NEW POSTS will give you all the posts for the day, USER CP will direct you towards all you need for your messages and your signature, etc. PORTAL will also show you new posts for the day, plus who's logged on, etc.

You'll get used to it, it just takes some time. Good luck, and have fun!

Mickkey,

Thank you so much for this detailed response! I appreciate your taking the time to help me out.

Today is day 3 of Induction and I'm feeling less loopy and the fog is beginning to lift. In fact, my thinking hasn't been this clear in ages!

Okay...I'm off to find a challenge!

Warm Regards from Icy PA,

Liz
