Thanks! Didn't know half of what you say here. (The edit summary thing, for example. Won't miss it in the future.) And you know, receiving a welcome message just feels great. I do hope to contribute to Wikipedia in the future, so really, I do appreciate the nudge in the right direction.

By the way, how did you make your post in all those beautifully organised boxes?

I was using huggle, and told it to put {{WelcomeMenu}} on your talkpage. --I dream of horses If you reply here, please leave me a {{Talkback}} message on my talk page. @ 02:05, 20 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
