Why is the timestamp of my posts on the forum 1 hour out?

You need to change your settings.
At the top click MY CONTROLS. Then in your control panel look towards the left under the menu, click on BOARD SETTINGS. Under "Time Zone" make sure the pulldown menu reflects where you live, and then tick the "Daylight Savings" box

How do i put an avatar up?

Click on "My Controls" (near the advertising banner up the top of the page)
Under "Options" in the Menu, select "Edit Avatar Settings"
From here you have 3 options. You can either select an avatar from the Pre Installed section. Or you can paste a link to an image already on the net somewhere, or you can upload a picture from your computer (limited to 30k/b)

just wondering if there is any way to jump to new posts when you come on the board? or is there any way of telling which posts are new?

Click on the "View New Posts" button which is located on the top right of the screen next to "My Assistant"

Why does a warn level (with pink squares) show in my posts & it doesn't appear on anyone elses? Have I done something wrong???

The warn level is there in case your naughty. Everyone has a warn level but you can only see your own warn level. If its on 0% then thats good
By being naughty i mean breaking the forum guidelines etc. Only Admins and Moderators can see everyones warn levels.

Also, am I stuck with "Newbie" until I post a certain number of comments?? At least it makes me feel young again....

You can change your "title" in your settings. Click on "My Controls" which is located a bit above the blue fast reply button. Then in the menu, select "edit profile info". Then in the top box "Custom member title" you can type anything you want in there. If you leave it blank then it will use the RA default member titles.

Can someone please tell me how to upload pics so they will display in a post?
(I don't mean just linking to an image on another site)

When replying to a post you must not use the FAST REPLY if you wish to attach a picture. You need to click the "Add Reply" button.
From her you can attach a picture by browsing a picture which is on your local hard drive.

The second to last option in the Add Reply page is "File Attachments" and here you will see a browse button. Click the browse button and search for the file on your hard drive.
Then attach and complete the post by clicking the "Add Reply" button down the bottom.
