Texan, you are a 30 day probationary member. Be active on the site and in 30 days you'll magically get access to the Trading Post.

We are first and foremost a discussion forum which is where we prefer our members to focus their posting. The Trading Post is just a benefit on the site for those members who participate in the rest of the site.

How about starting your new posting by creating an introduction thread in the New Member Sign In forum?

ETA: also, take one time to read the threads in the Site Specific Topics section. It'll answer a lot of questions.

I noticed you said "anymore". We're you a member here before?
