How to send a private message on this forum

There is a private message function on this forum, enabling
members to drop a quick message (like an email) to other
members.
Primarily, this is useful for contacting the Administrator or
any moderators of the forum regarding any issues, but it's
obviously useful too for private discussions between members.
This is a step by step guide on how to use this feature.
1) Hover your mouse over the 'My Messages' button at the top of
the page (see image below for example of this)

2) Click on 'Send a Message' - this will take you straight to
compose a message (see image below).
3) In the 'To' area, start to type the name of the member you
would like to send the message to (you can add more than one
member). As you type, that member name will appear in a box
below (see image below for example). Click on the correct member
name as it appears below, and that member will be selected.

4) Write your message and send as you would do a normal email.
From the 'My Messages' area you can also view your own inbox,
send messages, search through your inbox and also change the
settings.
If you click on 'Change Settings' you can choose how you are
notified when you receive a new message (you can set it to
'pop-up' on screen for example) to your inbox, who is allowed to
send you messages, and more.

...and if you want to keep a record of your messages, don't
forget to tick 'save a copy in my outbox' at the bottom.
