A map? Or a set of directions?

I keep seeing indications of site features, like buttons on every post that are mysteries, like journals and albums and diaries...where does one go to find these things, and find *about* these things?

I am pretty certain I have no idea what’s really available, or how to use it.

Ca ya help a brother out?

^ All journals

https://www.icmag.com/ic/album.php
^ All galleries

If you want to look at galleries or journals made by a specific member, click on their user name and there will be a pop-up with a link to "view member's forum galleries" or "visit member's journal", if they have galleries and/or journals that is.

Grow diaries have a sub-forum of their own:

I have no idea about these mystery buttons on every post tho..? Don't think I've ever seen that stuff. Can you take a screen shot where these buttons show up, brother?

Bottom right, next to the quote button
Top left, next to the date of the post.

Thanks for the pointers, I’ll go check ‘em out!

Bottom right, next to the quote button -> Quick reply button -> Multi-Quote button.
These are mysterious? Clicking on quick reply will take you to the bottom of the page where you can reply to a post like 2 seconds faster than you can reply to a post using the "post reply" button. Not that useful if you ask me, but there it is.

Multi-quote button is for quoting multiple posts at one go. Click on the multi-quote button on which ever posts you want to quote to highlight em, then click "post reply" and the quotes will all show up in your reply.

Top left, next to date of the post, thingy that looks like a small sim card?
If the sim card looking thing is blueish, that means it's an old post.
If it's orange, that means the post was made after you last visited the thread.

Or something like that..
We good?

We very good: I went exploring...and realized what I was looking for is available on the drop-downs up at the tippy-top of the page...

Thank you for your help orienting myself...and after three years of wandering around, too
(I do a *T*O*N* of reading...not so much the wandering about)

That's actually handy the little orange/blue icon that tells you if posts are new since last time in the thread. I never even noticed it over there.
