How do I use the Message Center?
Overview
SHOE Members can send each other private messages. If someone sends you a message, you will receive it in your message center. A flashing envelope in the blue task bar below informs you of the new message.
How to write a Message
Direct Message
Go to the Users Profile and click on "Send Message" just below the Profile photo. A window will open and you can compose a new message and send it directly to this user.
Message through Message Center
Either click on the white envelope on your blue taskbar below. It's on every page or go to MySHOE - Message Center
Click on "Write new Message". Enter username of recipient where it says "Your message to", add Subject and Text.
