My Kitten, I would like to offer my apologies for the assumption I had reached re the term bof`hd used by yourself. I had never heard of this photographer and have now learned a very important lesson, as HH said, It is always a mistake to jump to conclusions. :oops: :oops:

Click Search...

Type Bough in the keyword box...

Click the (Search for all terms) button...

Click the (Display the results as) button from topics to Posts...

Then hit search...

It should narrow things down a wee bit, keep your eye out for the keywords.

All the best, Alex. 8)




This seems to be the best and easiest way to do a search on the forum.


Is there not already a sticky on Forum Issues specifically on searching? Will it not make searching for searching harder to have two?! :wink:

And before you post the pictures don't forget to SEARCH the forum to be sure you post under the right thread

when you search for a term and a thread is returned with many pages, how do you skip to the first page with your term on it?

When searching for a word in particular try clicking the tab in the (Display Results As) box to Posts and it will show you all posts with that word in it and you can click the subject link to go direct to the post.


Or when searching for a phrase or sentance click (search for all terms) under the search box, and again click the (Display Results As) box to Posts and it will show all of those posts and then click the subject link to go direct to the post.

Hope that helps. :)
