Hi @nikandra. Thanks for your post. I can understand where you are coming from. I have two kids at home who keep my occupied. This is a great place to post a picture a day. Add a paragraph or two of writing and it will be even better. It might take some time to catch on but after a while you will get the hang of things here for sure.

Find some posts you like and make some sincere comments. That's the best way to get around at first.

I started a series called Groovy School and you can be rewarded by participation. Actually everyone gets paid to go to school. Each Sunday I send back part of the rewards to everyone who participated during the week.
