Classified Ad Message Boards Simple Instructions for Use Click on the section in which you are interested in placing your classified ad. Scroll down to the section entitled "Post a Message." Fill out the form and click on "Post Message" when your ad is ready. !! IMPORTANT!! Do not click on the "Post Message" button more than one time! Every time you click on that button your ad will appear, so if you click on it five times, it will appear five times! The first box is for filling in your name or the name of your company and the second box is for your email address. The third box is for the subject of the ad and should be kept short and sweet, if possible. The box entitled "Message" is where you can type the bulk of your ad. Underneath this section are three more boxes. If you don't have a website, then you don't need to fill in those boxes. Just click on the "Post Message" button ONCE - and give the board a minute or two to post your message. Nothing fancy is going to happen. Wait one minute, then click on the link at the bottom of the page that takes you back to the section in which you placed the ad. !! IMPORTANT!! Your ad will not appear unless you go back to the section in which you placed the ad and click on the Reload button of your browser, so don't keep clicking on the Post Message button over and over. How to Place a Link Back to Your SiteIf you have a website on the internet, you can place a link back to your site. Simply fill in the section entitled "Optional Link URL" with your web address (URL). Next, type in the title of your company or your website in the box entitled "Link Title." If you would like to have a picture of something at the top of your classified ad, its not that difficult, just fill in the "Optional Image URL" box. Here is how you do that: Go to your website and choose the picture you would like placed at the top of your ad. Center your mouse arrow over the picture and click the button on the right side of your mouse (Right Click). A menu will appear and one of the items to choose will be "View Image." Click on "View Image" and this will take you to your image on the web - pretty neat, huh? Then, you copy the URL up on the locator line of your browser and come back over to NorthValleyRoads.com to fill in your ad. Thank you for participating.
