Strange site on GBO so I'll ask the pro's ( I fixed the pic)
« on: September 22, 2009, 11:59:34 AM »
 I see this from time to time and truly don't know what in means
Looks like a cell phone ,so does it mean you can call
Like a PM Icon or a aim Icon just curious
They say there is no dumb questions just dumb answers
Maybe I will break this old Phrase
Thanks

No clue to be perfectly honest. I looked thru the profile of Billy who you used in the example and find nothing to clue me. He does have a YIM whatever the heck that is so it might mean that. Looking at the properties of the little icon it's called a mobile as in mobile or cellular phone which the image looks to be. Still phone numbers cell or otherwise aren't a part of anyone's profile.

Unless Matt or Tim knows I just have no clue.

That icon shows up when I post from my Blackberry cell phone.
99% of all Lawyers give the other 1% a bad name. What I find hilarious about this is they are such an arrogant bunch, that they all think they are in the 1%.

Bill's right on, as Billy confirmed, it's a post made from a mobile phone, I checked another member that I know is posting from his cell phone, his replies have the same icon.

Ah ha mystery solved it means a person posted from their cell phone not a computer. I have enough trouble using mine for phone calls without having to try to use it as a computer for the internet.
