Welcome!!!
The Newbie Sampler trade is a GREAT way to get started. Check that out - I got the HELL bombed out of me in the trade when I joined.
As you can see, I've only been a member for just a bit. I've learned you participate in the threads, chat with others - and before you know it, you'll be at 1100 and 100% here too!!! And it only gets better from there!
You're in with some of the most generous people you'll ever meet. And they're not kidding - fill out your profile and you never know what'll happen... Your post man will never look at you the same way again!!!
Most of all, enjoy!
