What's your username? We've experienced a common problem ... if your ID isn't in
a specific group, it does this to people. But once you're added to a group, you
can see stuff. I'll stick you in the 'user' group and it should be all better.

Has anyone else had this problem after signing up for a new account?

Email me - tim@NOSPAMldraw.org - with details and I'll try to fix your account.

Well they haven't till now, but I believe this system will do us a lot of good,
taking a lot of the manual labor out of the job and allowing the site to
function smoothly.

That's the plan :-)

(...) I didn't know that the .org was in the name. Learn somethin' new every day. (...)
