When done click on the Quote button in the last post that you want quoted in your reply post.
- Quick - This will take you to the Quick Reply box at the bottom of the tutorial page. It will allow you to make only a quick reply in the tutorial without quoting another post in the tutorial.
How to Create a New Tutorial
Note
Creating a tutorial is for posting a tip or trick about Windows 7 to share with others to help them. Please do not create a tutorial to ask a question about a problem. The Windows Seven Forums is used for separate questions instead. Please only post a reply or question about a tutorial inside that tutorial instead.
 Warning
Only members that have earned a Power User badge and above are able to create a tutorial.
1. New Tutorial - This is located at the upper and bottom left corners of the Tutorial section, but not while you have a tutorial open. Click on the New Tutorial button to open a create a new tutorial window.
2. Options - To type in a Title and Byline for your tutorial. Type in a desciption of your tutorial in the synopsis section to have it display as a quick description for your tutorial listed in on the Tutorial Homepage. At the bottom select a Category Icon that you want the tutorial to be displayed and sorted under.
3. Post New Tutorial or Edit Post - This is just like posting in the Windows Seven Forums sections. Type in your tutorial here. You can use this link for BB codes to help allow you to add special formatting to your tutorial such as the yellow TIP, blue NOTE, and red WARNING boxes. When done, click on the Submit New Tutorial button at the bottom to post your new or edited tutorial.
4. To Upload, Attach, and Remove Images - While editing the tutorial/post click on the paperclip icon on the toolbar (see screenshot above).A) Upload - If this is the first time you are uploading images, then it will take you directly to the Manage Attachments window below. If you are uploading additional images, then click on Manage Attachments after clicking on the paper click icon. You will now click on one of the Browse buttons (see screenshot below step 3), browse to where you have the image saved at on your computer and select it. Repeat this until you have added all of the images that you want to upload. When done, click on the Upload button and close the Manage Attachments window.
B) Attach - After uploading your image(s), move your cursor to where you want the image attached to in the tutorial/post. Click on the paperclip icon again (see screenshot below step 3), and select the image that you want to attach.

Hi Nick,
I'll have to check into the category issue with John on why that is, but you can just upload a image for the header image (icon).

Maybe I'm just missing something obvious, but I'm finding it a bit difficult to find tutorials for Win7 Installation. Even doing a search is not real conclusive.
Can a *Windows 7 Installation* Category Icon be added?
This is going to be a much sought after tutorial topic in the coming days and weeks.
Saw a new post yesterday asking if there is a *New Comers Welcome Guide*!
No replies pointed to one. This is a good idea.
If there is one, can you tell me where I can find it.

I have trouble, also finding the right tutorial quickly so as to provide a link to a new person I am helping. For some reason the words I use to search in the turorials don't find the needed one fast enough or they are listed by some other key word.
Is there a better way to search the tutorials ?

Hi Doc,
You can use the tutorial index. They are arranged in alpabetical order by subject. For example, S for anything specifically about the Start Menu.
Is there a particular one you are looking for. I can always help find one for you as well, or possibly create one if we do not have it. :)

I have used the alphabetical tut index, but it's not always by key words.
Nothing specific right now. I'm bookmarking them i my browser once I have the most useful ones for the new members at that particular moment. Thanks for your fast reply :)
