  This might make me sound very foolish but I need to ask nonetheless. Why can’t I look at/preview my own profile? The only profile related thing I seem to be able to look at is the edit page not the profile itself. It would be nice to see what effect my tinkerngs on the edit page are having on how the world sees me. Am I just being stupid o is it really not possible to look at my own profile to see what it is I am editing?

  @ lostinstuff – There are no foolish questions; no one springs from the womb knowing this stuff. However, baba1342’s comment proved Mark Twain right. Twain said, “It’s better to keep your mouth shut and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt.”

  Now. Back to your problem. If you click on the word member next to your user name here, you will see the profile we do, except you will have private options. One thing we both see is that you have not linked your blog to your username, which helps us greatly. There’s a thread right here on the front page explaining how to do it.

  HTH.
