That's strange. I clicked on it, and it went straight to my page. Perhaps I have something setup wrong, you think?ibanez468

Thanks for the congrats guys. It was a frustrating journey I'll tell ya'. But by all of the poststhat I've read over the last couple of months, I can see that this is typical. So I'll just keepat it like everyone suggests and not ruffle any feathers. I'm easy. Let me know if the littleweb address at the bottom of my posts is working.ibanez468

I clicked your link and it still does not show your photo, music, etc. I joined taxi 3 weeks ago... so far made 24 submissions... 3 were rejected to date... That's where I'm at. Congratulations!!! Everyone creating music is doing a good thing for the world... I always try to encourage musicians starting out to spend 50% of the time creating their 'own' music. That is something I wish I did more growing up. Happy writing!

O.K. guys. I see what you see now. No songs listed. I'm setting things up in my profilethe same way I see others setting theirs up. These little web addresses at the bottomof the posts, you guys are putting these addresses in the "Signature" box, aren't you?When I go to my upload page, the boxes are checked. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I've tried several different ways to do this, and still, no luck. Somebody help meout here when you get a chance.ibanez468
