| Can you still change your title thingy? I'm bored of being a senior member and want to be different. Trouble is, the FAQ section was less use than a sabreur in a MENSA convention, and a search revealed precisely..............sod all.
Anyone in the know?

| Actually I had trouble a few weeks ago when I tried to Go Green. It gave me an error- something like product not found.

Go to your user control panel--under miscellaneous, there is an option for "paid subscriptions." Quote: |

Or if it hasn't been fixed, you can use PayPal to send money directly to Craig--PM him if you're really interested.

| I had trouble finding out how to use a credit card when I went green awhile back. Wound up creating a paypal account just for the occasion.  Then Craig said I could just slap it on my card (too late) - and that there was a link to it in the f.net store. That was so long ago, I haven't looked since. May still be there?
If you ask me, it's well worth the investment of a couple bucks to support this site,a nd as I recall, you can do it monthly, yearly, or what-have-you. It's not fair for the guys who run it to have to do so much out of pocket. Even volunteers need a hand once in awhile, and since I can't bake them cookies, I'm happy to toss them a pittance.
C'mon, people - fork over the cash. You're here day and night. You OWE them.

Or if it is I could not find it a couple of weeks ago when I wanted to renew my membership.
You can still use the PayPal option, I believe, but for someone not being familiar with that I'd rather have my credit card deducted.
I also PM'd Craig about it, asking him to set up an option for this (since he encouraged it) but have yet to get a reply. I may have to PM him again...
