It may be our Birthday Today but you guys get the gifts!
Gift #1 from us to you is... The Zoints Network...
The Zoints Network is an addon which gives you Myspace.COM like features and allows you to share you profile amoung member forums. The number of member forums is growing every day! (Hint... I have hidden a special birthday secret in my Zoints Blog Entry... to see you must create your own Zoints Profile. For details on how to do this please keep reading below)
To get an idea of what Zoints offers, please take this quick tour.
What is Zoints?
Zoints is a forum network and profile system utilized by more than 200 forums, including many of the largest in the world. It provides you with new features such as your own highly customizable personal webpage, photo albums, blog, page to show off your vehicle, means to keep track of friends, and MUCH more. In turn, Zoints is designed to help bring new members who share the same interests as we do to this forum. An example profile of a SatelliteGuys member can be seen here.
Before I go further, if you don't want to use Zoints, don't worry, you can turn it off by going to your user control panel options page and unchecking the boxes at the very bottom.
