ohow to get in contact with other members

Just go onto your profile page and click the box entitled Messages, then click Compose. Make sure to use the proper username of the user you are messaging when you do, because some people find it confusing as there are two. It's not the name that appears in the forum posts that you use, but rather the one that begins with @. It's to be found on the profile page of the user you want to message.

For example, the username that is displayed when I post is ''Charley'' but if you wanted to message or tag me you would have to use @reinecarola.

You're welcome! 🙂

Go to a product they posted. At the top of the page is the name of the member who posted it. Don't click on the name, just hover over it and check the status bar at the bottom of the browser (or right-click>copy link). The last part of the link contains what you should use to send a DM.

e.g. for one of your product posts you'll see the link ends in /frank22/. So, to send a DM you'd use @frank22.

Here's a quick and dirty trick I use:
when you click the name on a product and get their catalog, like
https://zonegfx.com/author/amberkat/

...just replace "author" with "members" and you'll get right to their profile page!

Just a simple observation :p I'm a details person. 😀

Sorry GOF @Pooper for using your name as an example LOL. I thought you would get a notification and pop in to see what's going on. Oops I did it again.
