...and saying hello to everyone.
I have a question.

...on "My Board Posts" on the drop-down menu.  You will find out the status of your post.

As a Newbie, you are moderated and it could take up to a day to get your post up.

Thank you so much. The TER logo was missing on my website. Duh!

if you haven't read the self help center, do it asap.  As previously stated, all posts from new members are moderated, which means they have to be approved before they get posted.  To get off moderation, start posting on your regional board, and after a time, if you have demonstrated that you can obey the posting guidelines sufficiently, you can ask admin to un-moderate you.  Then your posts will appear immediately after you submit them.  It may take a few weeks of posting, but we all had to go thru it.

Thank you for the hi and advice.
My ad is up and running. I am all excited with the new connections and friendships I will have.
