Vonda, welcome aboard.
Your message, when posted to the forum, also shows up on the gmcnet.
Many of us on the net, as it is more commonly known, do not have any
interest in participating in Facebook. So, if you want specific technical
information about your coach, you perhaps are better served on the net. If
you just want to yak with other people about things like lifestyles,
family, social interactions, etc. facebook is your source for that. Also,
pictures can easily be shared there, and are not as easy on the net due to
limited bandwidth. The sigfile helps others know your general location
geographically, and what year and model your coach is so our responses to
your questions are more specific.

Thank you so much for the warm welcome!
I am definitely trying to make sure I find all of the information and
groups recommended by those in the FB group which is the first group I was
added
to by Danielle as she is local to me and has a '73 GMC.
For the sigfile, do you mean my signature within the forum? I am doing as
much reading as I can to insure I get our coach in good shape prior to
another voyage. Scott and I made a decent size list going over it the other
day. Sean, Scott and I are getting together on Sunday to do more work on
the coach so I can learn from their experience.
Again, thank you for the welcome. I hope to become a helpful member of the
GMC community once I find my footing, ha.

78 GMC ROYALE 403 To expand on what Mr. Hupy said, those of us that don't facebook don't even have accounts. A lot of times someone here posts a URL of a facebook post of pictures or something. I click and get "you must be logged in...". Not gonna get a facebook account, so that kind of post does me, and others like me, no good at all.
So if you want to put photos someplace where they will last as long as there is a GMCNet, use the photo site
http://www.gmcmhphotos.com/photos/
Then read the sticky at the top of the forum for the process to imbed them in forum posts so members can see them seamlessly.
When Mr. Hupy said "gmcnet" he was talking about the mail list. The forum is also named GMCnet. There is an interface between the mail list and the forum servers that sends anything posted to the forum to the mail list subscribers, and anything sent by the list subscribers to the forum. Pretty cool. But remember that mail list subscribers don't see some of the things visible in the list, like the location field of your profile, so put your location in your sig. The also don't see any images within the IMG tags, so include a link to images by letting the interface hang the URL tags around them. The thing that forum subscribers don't see that mail list subscribers see is the email address. Mail list subscribers see the email address of mail list subscribers AND forum subscribers, forum users see no email addresses except those in people's sigs.
