I'm new here

I've been a "lurker" here for quite a while and just decided to join recently. I'm looking forward to participating in the discussions on this site.

Welcome friend!

There are lots of handy tips available in the Handbook of ATS Links.

Here are some Smokin' BBQ Threads (Important Website-Related Topics).

Configuring your MyATS page is the easiest way to put the ATS universe at your fingertips.

Be sure to check out Social Issues on PTS. I'm sure you will find the atmosphere to be friendly, enlightening, and rewarding.

Here's an excellent little, unobtrusive spell checker, in case you need one: IESpell 2.1.1 build 325

A convenient text editor also comes in handy when composing those epic posts: EditPad Lite.

Sooner or later you will find a use for TinyURL!™

Oh, and vote for the Automotive Forum.

Thanks for the links Grady, I'll check them out.

I also visited this site months previously to registration as a member.
I'm sure you will gain insight and expanded knowledge from the many enlightened members of this community.
Enjoy!

Quick question though. What is this points thing under the usernames? Like mine says:

ATS Points: 528
BTS Points: 3
PTS Points: 2

How do you earn more points, and are they important?

Thanks,

Among the links that I provided in my previous post is this one on points.

They are points that allow you to use certain features of the site. like avatars or the secret forum
