I'm fairly new here. Are there home pages associated with this site? On my personal website I have a US flag but I'm not too proud of the People Socialist Republic of Illinois flag.
done
I lived in DeKalb, IL when I first browsed FR, but had moved to Michigan by the time I finally set up my first user name.
You can opt for the U.S. flag if you wish. In the upper right hand corner click on "more..." then scroll to your "profile" pageand click, click on "you can edit this page" that will take you to the flag options, just pick one click the state/country and it will magically appear on your very own homepage.
When you are reading posts if you hold your arrow over the posters name it will give you the date they joined FR, if you click their name you will go to their homepage. There are some VERY INTERESTING homepages with lots of good info and humor on them. Another great way to enjoy FRee Republic.
All you have to do is click "Set My Location", on the "more" page.
It gives the rest of us some hint of where you are in the world.
It's fun, just to know sometimes too.
