I seached but couldn't find out how it is done. Clicking on "Quotes" doesn't get the job done. I am doing something wrong but can't figure it out. Any one?

If you just want 1 quote then hit the "quote" button bottom right of that particular post. It takes you the right place.

If you want multiple quotes hit the icon next to the "quote" button for each quote you want, then hit "Post Reply" bottom left.

Not sure if that is what you are asking but you can then delete out parts of the quotes you don't want. Does any of that make sense?

There, but it doesn't look the same as your quote reply. It doesn't say... originally quoted by > REK. And it's not italicized.

So I'm still not sure how to get it to look like the way you & everyone else does it.

If your posts were together, they wouldnt have made sense.

If you hit the "quote" tab in this post you will see:

[QUOTE=BigErf;3510185]You MUST put etc..

That "[QUOTE=BigErf;3510185]" has to be there in order to work..
