Is there an area to do test posts?

I'm going to make a thread to sell all my PS3 stuff. Some forums have test areas but I don't see one here. After my thread gets started I can just test posts in a bump. I just sold all my blu-rays at Blu-ray.com but this forum is a little different. I'd like to try test posts using the different options and to see if thumbnails from the image hosting site I use will work here. If there isn't a specific area is it ok if I do some test posts in this thread?

If you click on "More Reply Options" at the bottom of the quick reply box, there is a "Preview Post" button that will let you see the post before you post it.
