Good for you on checking out the PALnet folks, I just read the results from last weeks Post Up show and I won 3rd place in the evening session with the announcement post for that family traditions contest, that is not bad if I say say so myself.
I took the opportunity in my reply to put a good word in for you too. I know how hard it is to start from scratch around here so I try to help the new folks I come across as much as I can. I highly suggest you make it a point to get on that Post Up show at some point if your schedule allows, if nothing else just to see how it works.
Take care and we'll visit again I'm sure,
Sult
