How do I start a topic?
From the home page, press the "Start a new topic" link. Give the topic a title, and assign a year, and the new topic should appear on the page.
Where do I create photo albums, upload videos, or write messages?
From any topic page, simple scroll to the bottom of the existing entries and select the kind of entry you would like to add.
How do I add photos to an album?
At the bottom of every photo album there is an "Add photos to this album" link
Can I remove a topic?
Only the administrator may remove a topic. To remove a topic, all entries in the topic must first be deleted. From the homepage press the "manage topics" link. Empty topics will have a red "X" that can be used to remove them them. If a topic does not have an "X" then it still has entries (check the trash) and may not be removed.
How do I edit or remove a specific entry (album, photo or message)?
On the topic page, you may edit any entry that you created by pressing the "Edit my entries on this page" link. This will reveal a bar with edit or remove options for all entries you created.
How do I permanently delete a topic entry?
Entries removed from the topic page go to a "trash" page for that topic. Any topic with entries in the trash will have a link to "View trash entries". From the trash page you may restore or delete any entry that you created. This two step process prevents accidental deletion of entries.
How do I sort entries in a topic?
Only the administrator can re-arrange entries. For administrators, the edit-bar for each entry in the topic page will have a "handle" to drag entries to their appropriate place on the list.
