karma: 1 |  Points and logging in?
Ok, I don't mean to be a downer here but this points thing is driving me nuts!! I spent literally hours on these forums admiring the creativity of some of you brides! :) However, I seem to have to log in all the time!! I'll be browsing away and then go to post something and notice (or just notice) that I am no longer logged in! So, I am not "earning" points. So, after all this time browsing, when I do see a template or whatever that I want to download, I never have enough points! 
Anyone else have this issue?

Re: the login issue. If you are browsing on your own personal computer, you might want to click the "Remember Me" option when you login to avoid timing out. If you have done that, make sure your cookies are enabled for this site so you can stay logged in.
I don't believe you actually earn a lot of points from viewing threads (I think it's maybe 1 point?) so definitely keep posting to earn. In the meantime, you caught me in a giving mood so I'm going to donate some points to you to help you out. Hopefully you can view some of those templates you are interested in.

Also, you have lots of fellow nebwies here. Say hello to them give them advice and you will add you will add up points fast. They want you to perticipate not just brows. You get more points that way.

I don't have a lot of points either, but if you have a good idea, post it. If people reply, then you get points!

I'm with you on the points thing. I have spent hours and hours on here, and everyone is wonderful and I have learned a ton, but for the most part I am learning everything from here and don't have much to contribute! So I get frustrated when I can't download an attachment because I haven't posted enough when I have ready (literally) thousands of posts. Not much you can do about it besides start posting more, but I wanted to let you know I am not crazy about the points system either.
But I am still EXTREMELY grateful for BDW!!!

I am grateful for this site too!!! It has a TON of awesome info and I can spend hours looking at the planning threads alone! I am addicted! I am also in the process of completing lots of DIY things so I'll be posting more soon :)
