What do ‘envelope’ images in left hand column of postings mean?

[linheu]

Hi everyone, earlier today I posted information about selling our trailer. After posting it, I noticed that the image of an envelope in the left hand column of my post is different than everyone else’s (blue versus red of just about every other post). Can someone please explain to me what that column of ‘envelopes’ mean and why mine is blue with an arrow in it? Would greatly appreciate it. Have I done something wrong in the posting? Thanks.

I don't see it in your post... can you post a pic of your entire profile area?

One of these envelopes? Is there a 'legend' for the variations?

The lock for locked thread is obvious, but some of the others, not so much.

 

[Donna D.]

Okay, thanks. The legend is at the bottom of the page. I thought the OP was asking about one of the icon's under a members profile. Glad I asked...

The legend is at the bottom of the page.

Donna D, thank you for posting the photo of the legend as there is nothing like this showing anywhere on the page with new postings (I work on an ipad and sometimes things just don’t seem to show up that should). I still don’t understand all of it but enough to not be as worried that I did something wrong with my posting. Thanks to all of you for replying.

Thanks to you too Alan.
Again, there is nothing showing on the bottom of my pages like the legend that Donna posted.

Go to the root level, not in a thread, then look at the bottom of the page.

FWIW your for sale post looks fine to this casual observer.

Thanks Rubicon.

Donna D, my apologies for being so uninformed about how to use the forum, but what is the “root” level?

DonnaD, I found it! Thanks for your help.
