FINDING NEW POSTS
When you sign into your forum account, you will notice a little icon next to each folder that looks like this: [img]http://www.cartct.com/board/templates/subSilver/images/folder_big.gif[/img]
Folders with new posts are marked like this: [img]http://www.cartct.com/board/templates/subSilver/images/folder_new_big.gif[/img] When you click to open the folder, each individual topic is also marked with either a Checkered Flag (old post) or flashing NEW (new post). This will help you find new posts that you have not read yet.
