I have noticed that there is sometimes an asterisk (*) next to the 'Yes!' or 'No' under the "New" column in the Forum listings.

Does anyone know what that asterisk signifies?

I'm not sure but I think it implies a picture was attached to the posting. I'm just guessing.

I agree with Trillium. From what I've been able to figure out all the posts with an (*) have a photo attached.

Chuckle. I never even looked at the date of the original post - good catch, Lisa!

I check the date, first thing...I was red faced once over a blast from the past posting. Someone long ago "gently" let me know it was an old post. :)I wanted to crawl under a rock..lol.

I always check the date first too. I did realize this was an old thread. :) I guess now if anyone else was wondering, too, now it will be easy to find again for awhile.
