Title: Just your average noob ...
Post by: Swede on July 12, 2006, 10:11 PM: Hi all,

Just joined this site. Seems like a really great setup. I normally posted over at RebScum, but heard there was a lot of fun stuff also going on over here. I've been collecting since 96 and have primarily an ANH focus. I've also been dabbling in photonovels as of late and would love to post some if people are interested in that sort of thing over here. Look forward to meeting some new people, although I deffinately recognize some names from other sites. :)

Peace.

Post by: Swede on July 13, 2006, 05:07 PM: Thanks for the warm welcome guys, Jesse; I think I remember you from over at Scums ... I'd always dig on your insight when it came to OT topics.

Here's my first noob question, is there a test area on these boards? I''ve been having trouble, posting pictures as of late. I didn't see one, but I'm also the same type of guy who'll ask a used car saleman if his prices are good deals ... kinda clueless ;)

Post by: JediMAC on July 13, 2006, 06:26 PM: Welcome to JD, Swede. Good to have some more European influence around here (I'm presuming). Definitely a fun place to discuss the hobby, and quite different from RS. As for a test forum, we don't have one. But feel free to test some things out right here in this thread if you'd like, and if they don't work, just do an edit back over your post and try again 'til you can figure it out. We can always delete your post later on if you'd like, once you've got the hang of things, no problem.

As for posting pix, check out this thread: Posting pictures. (http://www.jedidefender.com/yabbse/index.php?topic=1203.0)

Good luck, and holler if you've got any other questions! Looking forward to chatting with you around the boards here...

- Matt

Oh, and I'm actually not from Sweden. Both sets of grandparents were from there. You know the Swedish chef from the Muppets? ... I kid you not, my grandparents actually used to sound like that! I just inherited their goofy last name, and my buds coined "Swede" as my nickname. I guess there could be worse nicknames out there :D
