Why would there be a magifying glass near my own name as if I am watching myself?
Does anyone know?

What is the time limit of editing? Has anyone timed it?

What do the blinking yellow lights near a topic indicate?

I don't see a magnifying glass near your name...could it be that YOU are watching replies to a post? It would almost have to be something that you have set for "your eyes only."

The time limit is set at 24 hours, give or take a few minutes and is set on EST.

What blinking yellow light? Are you referring to Private Messages?

Dancer the only thing I see next to your name is a tiny face in a circle, with two slits for eyes and one for a mouth. It is on JJ's post too but not mine. Mine has a yellow happy face. But I have seen that little white face before on mine as well. The only blinking thing I ever see is if I have a private message.

LIGHT BULB moment, that little white face is only there when someone is off line.

It may not have to do with my name, but the post! I see the yellow light on some posts when looking at a segment of the forum.
I see the magnify glass near my name on some post, that may have to do with my name.
I'll investigate it further:
When I see them again, I'll get the place, the exact placement ande where exactly I am on the forum as well as the time.
I do not mark: "Watch this topic," so I know I did not set anything myself, and I don't recall making any changes to my profile.
LOL, am I seeing things, no, I don't think so.
Please stay tuned...

(when I posted this, the magnifying glass was next to that smiling face!)

Just a lame guess as I'm finishing lunch: Maybe it's a function of your computer or browser? Do you change type size often?

Gims, cute cartoon!

Well, this must be special from my computer. Still, it may be a function of the program for the forum that is popping up on my computer.

I can live with them. I like the cartoon too.

Oh well,
Dancer
