Forum Information Boards
As a member of Around Montmorillon you have your own User Control Panel (User CP) where you can make changes to the way your account works. To access it you need to click the link in the menu bar above where it says (User CP_Log Out) Or Click Here!
OK now you're in your User CP lets run through what you can do here.
At the top you will see your Usename, Number of posts you have made, Your email address (*don't worry only you can see this), The date you registered, And your primary user group.
Below that you will see your Personal Notepad. You can put in here whatever you want, as no one will be able to see it accept you. Make as many changes as and when you want, but remember to scroll down and hit the "Update Notepad" button. More on personal notepad Here!
Next you will see thread subscriptions and your threads, self explanatory really.
Now lets have a look at the left hand side which looks like this image. (Click it to see bigger)

So there you have it, the User CP. Go and have a look, play around and get yourself a better looking profile, some people set the User CP as their homepage.
Any questions please post in this thread.
