FAQ:
Q - Where is the old forum?
A - Right here:  http://legacy.whatsthebest-mattress.com/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.pl?board=wtb-mattress

Q - Where are the mattress reviews from the old site?
A -  The mattress reviews have been moved from the old site to the new site.  You will notice that they are all posted by "admin"  that is a necessary issue with moving them from the old format to this one.  Each new review will have the username of the reviewer listed with it.

Q - How do we earn points?
A - The system gives 15 points for a review and 1 point for a post.

Q - What is the earthly value of "points"?
A - A good feeling in your heart.

Q - My posts are not looking good here, what's wrong?
A - Not sure, but when you quiz us about that please include your browser/OS combination when you send us a PM.  Also, try a different browser.  Very few text editors work well with every OS/browser combination.

Q - When I reply to a thread all of the posts in the thread go away except for the first post. What's up with that?
A - To see all of the posts in the thread you are responding to simply click the "Full Thread" link at the bottom of the reply page.  This is very helpful speed-wise when you are responding to a multi-page thread and can really speed things up.

Q - Where is my confirmation email?
A - The spam filter on your email program got it.  In some cases, with Yahoomail for instance, the email might not even make it that far.  If this is the case send us email at admin whatsthebest-mattress.com and we will manually confirm your account.

1. Enter the text you want to display. Next we will convert that text to a hyperlink.

2. Copy the URL to the clipboard. Select just the part beginning www, not the http://

3. Now select the text from step 1. Do not cut or copy it, just select it.

4. Now click the link icon, paste the URL into the second 'source" box and select HTTP:// from the drop down list.

5. Click Insert and then OK

How to insert pictures:

1.  Select 'New Topic' or "Reply"
2.  Enter text in the message area you wish to have surround the picture you are planning to add.
3.  Select the 'Insert/Edit Image' icon just left of the smiley face, just above the message area.  A small window pops up.
4.  In this window type the URL of the image you wish to insert.  It should begin with 'http://"  and end with ".gif" or ".jpg".  Where it says alternative text type a quick description of the photo. Click OK.
4b.  If the picture is on your personal hard drive you will need to first upload it to a picture sharing/storage service like Flickr or imageshack.com.  Once the picture is on that site you can simply cut and paste the URL of the image into the small window in step 4. On imageshack, after you've uploaded the picture, use the url next to where it says "Direct": Copy and paste that url where it says "url" in the pop-up window here.
