Question number one is only for those with 700 posts or more.

1.
Name a TCS advisor for feral information


Question number two is only for those with less than 700 posts.

2.
What are the pixel and KB limitations on creating your siggy (signature)


Note: KatKwiz will be on vacation from May 11 through May 28.
On May 29, KatKwiz will be back, spinning even more points into bank accounts!

LDG!!! (for question one!)


I found this by going to the `Caring for Strays and Ferals' sub-forum and clicking on the stickies. I know Hissy used to be a Mod so I went to the next sticky (here's the link) and LDG was the author, and she has a TCS Advisor badge under her name.

You could also go to announcements and click on the `new advisors' post (link here) but that's a bit time consuming...plus a newer member wouldn't really know to look there.

I think the most obvious way to go would be to visit the sub-forum itself, which is how I found it in two steps!

No way I never knew you could do that! I've often wondered if you could see a list of the `staff' of TCS. Now I know! This quiz really does help people find their way around the site

The contest closes at 8:03. Hint: Somebody can win 500 points between now and then. Can you beat or give a better answer


Tomorrow's question will be winner take all, 1,000 points!

I like that feature and I think it would be great if (as with the moderators) it was listed next to each advisor what their speciality is. Otherwise you could click on four or five different ones until you get the one you're after. With the mods it has the forum they moderate next to them in another column.

Also, I didn't realise there were `Super Mods'


Go Stephanie and Wyyyyyann!

Clicks:
1. Forum jump to The Signature Shop
2. Click on the thread called Posting a Signature at TCS
You are today's winner. But you did not supply the pixel width of 640 so somebody else could have came along and supplied that and won. But, everybody wanted you to win so you are a KatKwiz Whiz of the Day! 500 points for you.

I had to consult with LDG about this one because I was having a terrible time deciding who won this part. But YOU are the KatKwiz Whiz of the Day.
adymarie supplied some very valuable information however, and that was the point of this question, to draw attention to the list of advisors and moderators that I am sure our newer members do not know exist as well as some of our older members. The final bit of information that gave you the points is that houseofcats is no longer an active advisor if you click on her profile and then click on see all posts by houseofcats. LDG is the feral advisor. And once again, although you found it logically faster, adymarie supplied the information that I was wanting to get out. This is why I am so late in awarding these 500 points, we did not want to give them to the wrong person.


OK, watch for KatKwiz #42. It will be worth OVER ONE THOUSAND POINTS and one winner wins it all! It will also be the last KatKwiz until May 29.

Fighting for ferals in NW NJ!
Congrats Sarah!

And Ady - I didn't know about that function either!


The only problem with it, as Sarah pointed out, is that it doesn't list in which forums the advisors are actually advising - and as members of TCS, we post in most if not all of them. I agree - it would be nice if the forum was included in the advisor list as it is for the mods.


And, in fact, TNR1 is an active advisor - but I'm not sure if she's technically an advisor in the ferals forum, or if she's technically an advisor in the Pregnant Cats and Kitten Care. Not that it matters - she has lots of great advice for ferals and strays in general.
