 082012@1618hrsEDT - I was wondering if there was a way to use the standard Slackware logo and wallpaper from the Slackware website for this wiki. It would give it that comfortable old shoe type feeling, I think. ~V. T.

 082312@2100hrsEDT - I've created a hyperlink on the main page in the paragraph under the Help topic where it says "you must create an account". Hopefully, this will make it easier for folks to figure out how to register new accounts. ~vtel 082312@2100hrsEDT - I've created a hyperlink on the main page in the paragraph under the Help topic where it says "you must create an account".

 +>It looks like either your caching was off or alienbob fixed the issue with the multimedia page not picking up your articleThe howto topic pages are just displaying all articles in their sub namespaces and your article is now appearing.  --- //[[wiki:user:mfillpot|Matthew Fillpot]] 2012/10/29 03:58//

 +> I received an email notification of an edit to the start page. I see that you reverted to a previous version to eliminate some SPAM. Has this been happening much? This is the only email notification of an edit that I've received in quite some time. ~[[wiki:user:nocturnal.slacker|V.T. Eric Layton]] 
 + 
 +I think you have an active email subscription to be notified of changes to the Start page. Click on "manage subscriptions" at the top to verify. I do not have page subscriptions myself, so I did not receive an email, but I monitor the "recent changes" instead. \\  --- //[[wiki:user:alienbob|Eric Hameleers]] 2019/04/17 08:15 (UTC)//
  
 +Yes, I am subscribed. I'll check my email's SPAM folder to see if notifications have been placed there in the past and correct this. Thanks! \\ --- //[[wiki:user:nocturnal.slacker|V. T. Eric Layton]] 041719@1042hrsEDT
