Hello Everyone;
Please check your freindship request and either accept them or reject them. But please don't let them sit idle. If one hundred people do that, if keeps others from making new friends. Just go to your friends tabs, the little silloettes at the top right of your page, under your name and click it. I expect if you haven't found it by now... you may have many pending new friends.
Just a tip.
Buck

Comment by Lois Sprengnether Keel (LoiS) on June 14, 2008 at 11:44pm - I click the icon for Add Hyperlink before & after posting a website, but that doesn't add it. What am I missing? That's the way WordPress blogs work, but apparently not the way ning does it.

How to invite someone to join PS?
At the top of your "My Page" there is a hotlink right next to where it says Hello & your name on the right hand side. It says Invite Friends. If you click on it, the screen changes to a spot to put email addresses of people not yet on P.S., under that you have an optional box to write a message to those friends you hope will join us. Click on Send Invitations when you're ready. There also are ways below that button where you can import addresses from some web address books or your address book application.
