Yay! The flags are back!
« on: September 12, 2008, 11:54:08 PM »
Hi all...

Now I'm happy! :D

The little national flags on the upper left hand corner next to your username ARE BACK and I encourage everyone to display theirs!! :)

To do that, just simply go to your profile page and then click on "Forum Profile Information" in the menu (on the left hand side) and then look down until you find "Please select your country" and hit the menu button, choose your nation and there you are!

Why didn't anyone tell us this before?? ;D

(A very happy) Best Regards...

Hi David...

Whoops, I just now saw it and posted. ;D

Well, if nothing else, this thread will hopefully encourage others to display theirs. :)

Best Regards..

Hi Faizfast6...

Malaysia's flag looks a lot like ours, except I think yours has more red and white stripes (more than 13.)

Good advice, by the way, "beware of rogue software." I've had to deal with that before with systems I have worked on....not fun. :(

Best Regards...

Thank you Avast.  You have made my day!!!!!
And thank you Ardvark for giving directions on how to display your country's flag.  Apparently just going to the Member Map and placing your location isn't enough;  although, I do like to see how many Avast users are in each country.

Hi Roro...

You're welcome, glad I could help! :)

I know I'm silly, I've had a thing for flags since high school. ;D

Oh, did you mean "Windows Mail" instead of Outlook Express 6 in your signature area? I thought Vista came with Windows Mail only. They're pretty much the same except Windows Mail has a spam filtering tool built in. :)

Best Regards...

Windows Mail was a replacement for OE developed for Vista only.  It is a total dead end product - the developers moved on to create the new replacement for OE for the future Windows Live Mail.

Our Maple Leaf is distinctive but alas the leaves will soon be displaying their blazing colours for a few short weeks then its back to a black, white and grey world for 7 months.

Hi...

Yes it is. :)

Yours is the only other country I've been to and I've only seen a tiny sliver of it... a small section of downtown Victoria B.C. :P

Just enough to say I was in Canada but a very pretty place (and pretty, beautifully rendered paper money,) irregardless. ;D

Best Regards...
