Hey, @carrieallen, thanks for you reply - I was a bit late to the discussion and wasn't sure if you were still responding to replies here!! I'd really like to write posts in HTML - so much more control, so I might just give it a go.
I'll also be making use of this post, and forward it to any new people I come across who are unsure about this stuff.
You're so welcome!
I have Gina Bot set up so she sends me messages in Discord any time I get a comment. So I always know. 😎
Hey @carrieallen, whats a gina bot?
Why... the sexy bot this side of ... the mountains? LOL!
She's a super helpful bot in DISCORD that can be programmed (very easily by you) to send you pretty much any kind of notification you can think of).
It's a very useful feature if you use Discord....And if you don't... I'd suggest joining. Steemians spend a lot of time there.
Here's an old post from when Gina was born... The links to join Discord and register still take you to the right place.
If you aren't familiar with Discord... this will be TERRIFYING... but don't give up. And ask questions. :)
