How does one start a thread?

Hi Charley! You just did it. If it was a test, it worked fine. And you picked an unusually good title for the thread: it really said what the thread was about.

If you actually wanted to do something else, can you say what you wanted other than starting a thread in a forum?

P.S. for other readers:

Charley went into a forum, scrolled ALL the way to the bottom, found "Start a new thread", filled in a subject and a message, and clicked on "Finished".

Go to the main page of the forum in which you wish to start a thread, scroll down to "Start a new thread," enter a subject and your post, upload an image if you wish, preview your post, and click on "Finish."

Go to the Forum of your choice, scroll down to the bottom, and you see that there is a place to put a name of the new thread and then you'll post whatever you want in the body area of the thread, with pictures if necessary.
