I guess this must be me again with my inability to deal with websites but I find I am going round in an endless loop trying to find out exactly where to start putting in my location and a photograph. Everything I try to do brings me straight back to the advice to go to the Register website and click on the entry for the Forum.

Step by step guide for the uninitiated would be welcome please.

Due to a misunderstanding I have been accessing the forum from the wrong starting point which is why I kept going round in circles.

Start with the home page MGB REGISTER website and pick up the FORUM on the left hand side list of options (that is what I was NOT doing).

From the forum page which comes up you can access some basic instructions - for those who are clever enough you can have these on one side of the screen while you fill in your details on the other. If however you are a computer simpleton like me it is easier to print the instructions and have them at the side of you while you enter your profile details.

I had problems getting a photo of the car onto the profile even when reduced to 120 pixels each way AND 20 kilobytes. I had to reduce the picture to a file size of just under 20kb before the system would accept.

Hope this may help anyone who is struggling - or am I alone in this?
