And besides, nobody wants to hear about me anyway. Keep your terminal curiosity to yourself. I am annoyed only because I can't figure this out and it's obviously really simple. Don't pick on me, I'm fragile.

If you click 'edit' on your profile, then click 'more details' ... 'description' is one of hte options.

I can get to that place, but it won't let me write in the box :(

Ok, that's radically weird.
Are you completley unable to click in the box, or when you submit it doesn' tgive you permission to do it?

I couldn't write in the box either, but it would let me past plain text so I did a copy job. The little buttons in the left hand corner are your friend
And it's a completely unable case -- I could get to every other box but that one.

What leanne said. I could use every other box. It seemed to be mocking me.

And yeah, I can't write in the field at all. Though I did what the mighty leanne said and copied into the plain text thing. Thar we go.

Ok, I added something... but it makes me sound so ordinary.

OK, I posted a bio and I also had some problems. I couldn't work directly in the text box, but I could copy something from Word and paste it into the box.
Then a few more glitches -- some of the copy in the box just didn't transfer over. In addition, I couldn't "pretty things up" with different fonts, bold/italics, etc. In short: I got the text into the box, but it once there it was untouchable.
Stephan, thanks in advance for checking into this.

If someone can test this with a different editor. (switching your editor in preferences) taht'd be awesome. I'm putting in a bug report now.

How do I switch editors exactly? Do you recommend one editor over another?

I am using FCKeditor simply because it looks naughty -- and it has a button so i can look at the source code. But i haven't noticed any great difference between Tiny and FCK... YACS is a bit arcane, but it's the surest of them. It tends not to create any problems, it' just harder to deal with line-braeks and such.
to change editors, click your user profile, then edit ... then under prferences, select one of the three editors.

I guess I wanted to use FKC for all the wrong reasons... In the end, Tiny wound up saving the day (I should have known it was the underdog who would come through.). It was super easy to use, and completely responsive to any changes I made.
Only thing is, now I see I don't have the smiley face options here. Guess I'll have to rely on words from now on. (gasp)

No smiley faces?
I protest. Vigorously. Hmmph.
But Tiny does the job, despite his shortcomings.

Although my bio. is boring it was easy to do.

jeez I can't even figure out how to put up a bloody poem half the time, and you want a bio?!
I'm dead boring - really.

I love boring Bios!
Click to your user profile, then edit .. under 'details' you'll find the spot for the bio!

OK, I have no idea how to post any bio information. I can't for the life of me figure out where to add it... unless you mean create a new page? But no, you've got bio information on your profile page. You suck Anstey.
