Your profile isn't showing up. Are you sure you signed up? - katydew, Jul 13, 2012
How do you think he posted a question without being signed up???? - TrueBelieber, Jul 13, 2012

More than likely, they posted the question here and then decided to delete their profile. - rac1, Jul 13, 2012

None of us did, when we started .... that takes some effort and time and enthusiasm. - mcl020, Jul 13, 2012
Hi there. I uploaded an avatar to my profile yesterday, and it saved just fine. I've since tried 4 or 5 times to fill boxes and add notes, but when I click SAVE, it doesn't. Is it me, or is there a bug? If it's me - Duh, what am I missing? - Enderby, Jul 20, 2012

Hello, welcome to the forum! The Blog will answer many of your questions. Also, at the top of the page there are 5 tabs. Under the "Learn" tab, you will find, "Learn Spanish", "Flashcards" and "Spanish Grammar". In Learn Spanish you will find lessons to help you get started in the learning process. That is where I suggest you begin. These are very good and will give you a foundation.

First, I would go to the blue top bar, select "learn", and then click on "Learn Spanish". That will take you to the video lessons.

Heya. I suggest getting in there and exploring. It feels a bit like a new neighbourhood full of little alleys and turns. There is so much here, and, all interconnected, that it can get confusing - until you start to recognise landmarks. Tabs: after a fairly intensive first week, I love them.

I may almost have worn out the Learn tab: brilliant! Videos, exercises, grammar reference & quizzes. Wow. So well put together. And clicking on your profile or the Span¡shD!ct logo gets you back to Km0 when you need to get your bearings. I like the clean spacious feel of the blue and white design, too. If I have to study grammar tables, I appreciate good design.

And here we are in Q&A. Clicking the Q&A tab and getting Games & Rules was a bit confusing, but makes sense to me now. I still get lost when looking for specific things, but with all of the above, plus the Translation and Conjugation tabs, and so many people coming up with all sorts of clever, entertaining games and questions, it's a lot more fun than I anticipated. Play. Enjoy. ¡Vamonos!

It depends on which part you want to get started with. If you still have problems you can always go to SpanishDict.com/reference !!
