Would anyone mind donating some points to me? I have a trial of Word and for whatever reason it decided it doesn't like opening documents unless I get it straight from a website. So unfortunately I have to click the link each time for it to work *sigh*

I am older than most of you young brides (51) and can't seem to figure this thing out. I'll have to call my daughters to help me. :)

you dont need points to post. you only need points to open attachments. each attachment you download costs 50 points.

no, you arent understanding that correctly. opening up links to photos is different than opening an attachment such as a template, a word doc, a pdf. it does not cost you any points to look at people's photos, unless they were stupid and uploaded a photo as an attachment to download (which is hardly ever the case around here, most stuff is hosted on photobucket and posted on the forum directly, or people link to their album online and you can click the link which doesn not cost you any points).

Anita,
The only way you lose points is if you purchase gifts for people or mostly likely in your case, open documents. There are a bunch of threads that detail how the function works. I get them and link them here for you. :)
