If you have a link to a tutorial or fancy doing a new one please post in here or pm me and I will add it to this list. I think initially only links to threads on this site although this may be up for debate. In order to keep this neat and informative after anyone posts anything to the thread I reserve the right to remove the thread after possibly incorporating the link into this main post. Its all about making these threads easy to find, l;ots of sprawling discussion will most likely hinder it. Obviously I wont cut anybody off but overall the long term aim is to keep this as a single post. Hope you all agree. Oops, better pin it Edited by kentronix, Sun Nov 22, 2009 7:36 pm.
