What makes you happy?!

When you're feeling low, tired or stressed, what are the things that can help you feel better?

We've just launched a whole new section called 'Your Voices' (take a look at the big purple tabs at the top ;) )
It's a place for you to share your stories via campaigns. Our first campaign is Happy Box - create a virtual box of mood-lifting things!

Create a HappyBox – fill it full of things that make you happy for your chance to win one of thirty £10 amazon vouchers. You can upload a list of things you would put in your HappyBox as a blog, or even take a picture of your 'real world' HappyBox. Is your HappyBox full of music? Great! Upload a playlist of all the songs that make you smile. Your HappyBox is then stored in one place (online) to access whenever you or someone else needs it.

Create your happy box here! :hyper:

    My log-in details don't work and it says my Email already exists? Having a dilemma?

    Mine did this. Try using spaces inbetween your username.

    Not to sure, mine didn't work the first time. I had to remove the stars from my name. Hopefully you get it sorted, maybe PM a mod, they may know what's wrong with it.

    Is there a way to edit, or remove something that we have added to the happy box?

    Is there a way to add to your happy box once you've made it? I know it says I've made one post but how do I make another in the same box ?

    I had a great time planning my happy box and its reminded me that there are things that cheer me up when I feel down! :)

    Loving everyone's Happy Boxes so far! :heart:

    Looks like quite a few of you have some tech-related questions about using it - hopefully @TheSite can pick these up on Monday :)
  • TheMixTheMix Posts: 3,129 Boards Guru
    Hey peeps :)

    A few answers to your questions that will hopefully help!

    First off - you'll need to set up a new log in for this - your boards log in won't work - we hope to have one log in for the whole site in the future but we're not quite there yet!

    That might help with some of the log in issues? Let us know though :)

    Secondly, at the moment you won't be able to edit/add to your happy box once it is made - this is really useful feedback though and I have passed it on so that we can look into whether we can make this possible in the future!

    Keep your happy boxes coming and let us know if you have any more feedback/issues - it's really useful for us to know :yes:

    Mine has 'Your E-mail is already in use' so I assumed I already had an account, for the life of me, I can't remember what it is, and there is like no forgot password or all that m'larkey, so I'm clueless as to what my log in could possibly be?
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,875,648 The Mix Honorary Guru
    I made mine! Exciting :D

    @TheSite Just wanted to add- at first when I logged in, it said it didn't recognise my email or password (when it was definitely correct) and I clicked elsewhere and somehow I was logged in (can't remember exactly what happened).

    Don't know if its a tech problem or not, just thought I'd make you aware.
