do you notify me automatically? Or will I just suddenly find myself logged out and unable to post one day?

I think I am paid up through 2007, but I’m not sure.  
I apologize for my ignorance (kinda what this board’s supposed to be fighting)–but I havent found any info about my subscription dates.

Click on your User CP, then Paid Subscriptions. You’ll see your “paid up to date” there.

April 2007 is correct.

Immediately after I read this thread I got an email telling me my membership expired in 7 days!! Coincidence??? 😉 Paypal worked nicely.

Glad the system is working somewhat, vetbridge . . . and that you resubscribed with a little prompting.
