the log in feature didn't recognize my name or password so I guess I need to find where to register.

I didn't register

You can post without registering, but if you'd like the ability to edit your own posts and such you can register. Click the link at the top right of the webpage.

I guess it needs a user name or pass word with more letters it keeps comming up with red no go message. My pass word only has four letters and my name three.

take a look and see if there's any switches to throw.

This is a very basic forum with not that many options to change. So my guess is you'll have to use at least six characters for your password. A suggestion would be to use your usual password - twice with no space.

Kind of like this:

passwordpassword

Only of course you'd substitute your password for the repeated words above.

Paul,

I registered via the link provided in the email I was sent. However, it keeps telling me 'Account registration failed'. ???

Any idea what I may have done wrong that cause the failure?

Murphy

you're fine. You're able to log in and post so your registration is fine.

You might try logging in with a different browser, or dumping your cookies and trying again with your current browser. BUT it looks like you're good to go now.
