Title: How to use search function here?
Post by: olecanalantiques on December 10, 2010, 10:16:44 PM: Just curious how? I can't seem to get to the box with the Ads at the top?

Post by: KC on December 11, 2010, 11:11:15 AM: Yep that bugged me in the beginning...but then I learned it wouldn't go behind the ads on the other pages. So, I decided....don't sweat the small stuff. I am glad don'tbe can get advertisers and make some money back on this FREE SITE to try and cover a little bit of what the site is costing him for all the years of fun/adventure for me!

Either way....when I am happy - the family is happy! :)

I think I typed it wrong above....the home page's search shows up behind the ads whereas the search shows up fine on the forum/threads, etc.
