   What are the orange boxes next to the topic titles? When I post a topic there is no orange box. Also how do get a smiley face or some other item into the open space next to the orange box? Thanks for the explanation in advance.

   Hi, I seem to be on Warn Status. Can someone tell me what this means? Have I done something wrong...or, is this sort of a probation period for new members?

    Searching for binomials

    Let's say I want to search for a specific palm using its binomial... For example Dypsis rivularis. I don't want a list of every time either search words have been used; all of the dypsis threads or a slew of Ravanea threads pertaining to rivularis... I am specifically targeting "Dypsis rivularis" Is there a way to accomplish this? Like using quotes around the nomenclature or a plus symbol between the two parts of the name? Any ideas?

    Conditions for a germination\ chamber box

    Hi good day all! I am building a germination box out of an old fridge! I would please like some suggestions as to the perfect conditions inside the box. Do I need lighting inside or is the thermostat element sufficient as the only source of heating. I am using a old polystyrene box used to germinate eggs. So I did germinate some washingtonia robusta inside it, but do you also need lighting when germinating the palm seed? Thank you

    I'd like to change my display name from the generic one I originally chose. I saw there's an option to do this under the HELP info, but I couldn't see a link to do so under my settings. Is it possible? Thanks.

    How I stay logged in? It seems that if I go to another site or check my e-mail for a few minutes, when I come back to Palmtalk, I'm logged out. Is there some way to stay logged in for say 24 hours or permanently? Thanks!
