I wanted to start doing these kinds of things from time to time to just kinda let members know about some features, or random things, that the site does that some folks might not realize, or know about.

The first one is dealing with PayPal addresses.

Did you know that if you list your PayPal address in your account details page, that address is given to every member who you have a transaction with? This is so you don't have to re-type your PayPal address into the transaction details every time, but also because if you type your PayPal address into the transaction details, it's made public for everyone to see.

I guess this "did you know" also works in the reverse too. Did you know that if you've purchased something from someone, and you don't have their PayPal address, you can look in the address block on the transaction to get it? Assuming they have filled it out in the account details page, it will be listed right there below their mailing address.

Again, I'll be doing these every so often, whenever I think of something that a lot of folks may not know about. Also stay tuned for a future "how-to" video series, where I break down how to do certain things here on the site, especially for folks who are new and aren't quite sure how to navigate everything on here yet.
