Don't lose your layout thread Tip

[bestcee]

So, that layout thread where each of us is going to create a thread and post our layouts? It's gonna be hopping.

Don't be Dumb Me who lost my thread and had to spend 15 minutes finding it again. Three days in a row....

Be Smart Me - who bookmarked my thread so I could come back to it! Not the page, the thread itself. Some add it to their signature, I just made a bookmark with the link in my browser.

That's a great idea, Courtney!

Love this. I always do this. Even for the monthly challenges (when I do them, eek) I bookmark my post in the thread by clicking on my post number. That way it jumps right to it rather than going through the pages each time.

I doubt you get the Directv Rob Lowe commercials there, but that's what I was thinking when I wrote it!

Great tip, Courtney!! This was such a help to me when I figured out to start doing it lol

Great tip!! I searched by my username, but bookmarking it or adding it to my signature is so much quicker LOL!

Love this tip...thank you for the reminder!!

 

[Aerobigirl]

OK, so I did that random search for my thread 31 days in a row last year.
Thanks for sharing your tip this year!!!

 

[littlekiwi]

yes, I bookmarked my thread plus the challenges. As I do the challenges I delete the bookmark.

Doh! I never thought about bookmarking it, but I do put my username in the thread title and in the first post. Then I just search for my name. Works like a dream. But I'll have to remember the bookmark trick for the future.

My signature has a link to my thread!!

I did this. That way, I upload to the gallery, then post it in the Challenge Thread. Click on my MOC link in my siggie from that post, and I'm at the 3rd place quick as can be!
