Thanks, David. Very thoughtful choices. Your mention of the article with David Petersen got me digging and we have that article on our site. I’ve put the link below for anyone who’s interested. Keep in mind it was written in 2010, but the meat of the article is still very timely today.

Here is a list of emojis/smileys that you can type in, however, the images I see using these keystrokes or words are a bit different from what is shown. Some can be inserted with either text or full text, and some can only be done with the full text option. I hope that makes sense. 😯

Hi Steve. Good luck with the elk!

Sorry this site is still hard to work with. It seems that the search doesn’t work for phrases, only single words, but I will do some digging to change that! When you search for a word, such as quiver, you will see comments from  threads that have the word quiver in them. If you look at the upper right corner of each box, it will tell you the thread it was in, and if you click that you see the whole thread. Yes, that is a really bad way to find something!

The other solution I found may be easier. Since you know you wrote the post, you can go to your profile (by clicking your name, everyone can click on anyones name) and click “Topics Started”. Then you will see a list of all of them and (hopefully) find the one you are looking for.

And now for emojis…

Emojis seem to be an individual thing within your keyboard now. Phones and mobile devices generally have them built in; look for the little smilie face near the space bar when you’re typing.

Here is a document that explains it for all devices; mobile and desktop/laptop computers. This probably isn’t the answer you were hoping for, but I am really having a hard time finding something that works on our site. I found that a quick keystroke combo gives me tons of choices on my Mac laptop. I think if you set this up on your computer, it can be a lot easier than you think, but it might be more difficult if you are using an older computer.

Keep it “G” please. My grandson’s favorite emoji is the poop. 😊 😳

We were actually posting a video tomorrow about using a compass and map. In the video he uses a Silva Ranger compass. A quick look online and this compass sells for under $40. Here is the link to the video: https://tradbow.com/use-compass-map/ It’s live now if you want to watch the video.

That’s awesome! I know how much work goes into writing a book, even if the subject is something you are passionate about. Congratulations, Steve!

I’m sure Dave Tetzlaff would welcome the opportunity to review this book. Keep in mind it might be six to twelve months before you will see it in the magazine. I’ll get the ball rolling on that for sure! Thanks for telling us about it.

Thanks, Todd. I sent your post to Don. That is an awesome thing that Steve did!

I know you do!

When you see a flag next to a forum topic, clicking that will take you to your most current unread post, as long as you are logged in.

And there is a small up arrow in a box along the lower right corner that will take you to the top of the page.

I will look for a way to improve the things you listed.

She is a darling. How can you resist? Just give her the whole bag of treats!

Click on the gray/white body image where you want your avatar to be. That takes you into your profile settings. Then click on edit and scroll down to where you can choose a picture from your computer. If you have trouble, send me the image and I can do it for you.

Private messages are in your profile area. Click/tap on your avatar image and you should see a link for “messages”. The link should have taken you to the message or the login page. I will test this out. Anyone else having trouble with message links in the email notification?

I think I have stopped the popup on the forum pages. If you see that form on your mobile devices (on other pages), turn the phone sideways to see the X to close the form. The other thing you could do is enter your details in the form, and then don’t click the email confirmation (unless you really want the tips). That should stop the form altogether. Because we used a new system for signups, it doesn’t recognize that you may already be signed up. I hope that makes sense, but feel free to message me or post here if there are questions.
