Little Orchid Pics

[Shirley]

Just wondering about the little orchid pics that appear under certain member's headers on their postings. Some have many gold, some silver, and Ross has a purple one that says FS under it! I see that even I have acquired one! What do they mean, please?

the FS is when you become a "forum supporter". The others I assume you get as you post a certain ammount of replies, create threads etc. I got my first one when I became a "senior member" after 100 posts.

Exactly

The regular "blooms" are for postings and the FS shows that member as a forum supporter. If you click on anybody member's FS, a page will open to explain the sponsorship program.

Thank you very much. Now, what do the regular blooms tell you? Is one added for each 500 posts, for example? And why the silver and gold?

Hi Shirley. One little chid at 100 posts. Two at five hundred. Three at one thousand, etc. Gold means members like you and me. Silver is super honcho like Sue, Dorothy, and so forth. I celebrated for a day when I got my second one. Three will be a while.

Just curious. How cause none of the mods/admin are FS? None of my business, but I am curious.

Personally, at this point, all I can afford is to give my time to the Board .. I haven't even purchased an orchid for myself this year! Oh the pain! Woe is me
