Welcome! With so much to do in the community, here are some tips to get you on your way...

1. Search. We have lots of videos, photos, discussions, blog posts, events and notes on Barnmice - and all have their own special sections that you can visit by clicking on the tabs at the top of the main page. Once you are in a specific section, you can search even further by entering a key word in the Search box. *When adding your own content to the community, be sure to always add lots of tags, so that other members with similar interests can easily find it.


2. Classifieds. Horse sales and classifieds placed by members are welcome in our community. You can place text ads in the Free Classifieds category of our discussions, or you can add a video or photo with tags such as "sales horse" "for sale", "used saddle", etc. Please note, classifieds are a courtesy for our members to connect with each other to sell (or find) horses, used tack, etc. If you run an equine business, sell a product or have a shop, we would be delighted to arrange advertising for you in one of our ad zones.


3. Experts. If you have any questions for our dietitian Elizabeth Levitt, our athletic therapist Claire Moscone Biafore, our psychotherapist Karen Sharf, or anyone from the vet team at MPEquine, please feel free to type in their names to search under Members and leave them a message. They are all here to help and have lots of great ideas!


4. Groups. Barnmice hosts a wide range of groups and everyone is welcome to join as many as you like. Or you can even start a group of your own! Go to Groups and click on "View All" to see all of our Barnmice groups.

14. Advertising Policy. There is no advertising or advertorial allowed in any of our member content sections. Any posts that we consider commercial will be deleted.

Just to be extra clear:
No posts or photos about commercial products or services.
No notices about commercial websites.
No links mid-blog or discussion taking readers to a commercial site.
Nothing whatsoever promoting commercial products, sites or services in the body or title of the post.

The exception to this rule applies only to Barnmice sponsors and partners who work closely with our Barnmice team to create special presentations for the benefit of our members, or who might add a quick announcement.

We do have wonderful ad zones, for all those interested. Let's all help to keep our content areas about our members - and not about advertising. If you would like to place a Banner Ad on Barnmice and promote your business in the community through additional content, just email admin@barnmice.com and we'll be happy to create a campaign specifically for you!:)

15. Deleting your profile. If at any time you wish to leave Barnmice (which we hope you never do!), just go to your settings and click on "Leave Barnmice" at the bottom of the page.

16. Questions. If you have any questions about how to use something on the site, or would like to see a new feature or topic added, please feel free to email info@barnmice.com any time at all and we'll do our best to help!

Happy riding!
