Quick question ?? .... Although there is a "Customization Tutorials" and "GFX" section there isn't really a sticky category section to post a tutorial on how to create stuff with consideration to graphics eg. PhotoShop, Corel, Gimp tips and tricks etc.

Can we have a dedicated section or do we just create a new thread on said topic under Customization or GFX ? :huh:
I've had loads a guys ask me / pm me, to post how I've done something and I'm not quite sure where best to put it :confused:

Cheers and thanks

Nick

I once posted a post with a lot of tutorials in it with external links to the authors site. It got removed cuz i couldnt link to external sources (as far as i remember that was the reason) :huh:
 
But, if we put the tutorials together ourself, then it's a good idea. But then again, how many tutorials will there really be done?

Well I've got a couple that I cold do given time and I've seen quite a few by some other "SevenForums" members on other forums, but I suppose we won't know untill we get the ball rolling ;)

You can start by writing one on making a sig. I was playing around in PS CS4 but my attempts are poor. You guys do a great job and tutorials, if well explained, would be great

tw33k, making a sig is hard to make a tutorial on since every sig is very different ;)

I understand. I was just getting frustrated trying to make one for a security forum I'm on :o

Well i guess you could make a tutorial to make a sig like mine, but on a sig like your current one will be harder to make a how-to on ;)
 
I think its a good idea, but what would be better would be a forum dedicated to tutorials, such as GFXtutorials.com or something, although you would need people to actually post tutorials on there and some can be quite time consuming.

I'm not sure, I dont talk much to Anthony anymore (long story) ;)

But i think it was just too quiet on the forums, no one posting etc.
The usual things that makes a forum close ;) (well some forums)
