Welcome.
In regards to paid subscriptions, if you go to the upper left hand corner of the screen, under the Bladeforums logo, you will see a white "button" that says "Forum", to the immediate right of that button is another button that says "Paid Subscriptions". If you click on that button you will see a list of all the various paid membership levels, drop-down menus showing how much they cost, what the requirements are for each level, and what benefits you receive.
And welcome to all of the other new members who have posted in this thread
