I made this for people (newbies) who don't know how to upload an image to their gallery. very simple instructions with screen shots. All this can be found here link 1. http://www.gfxartist.com/about/FAQ link 2. http://www.gfxartist.com/about/FAQ/2802/ step 1 step 2 step 3 step 4 step 5 I made this cause I have gotten asked 'how do I upload an image here!' even after I show them the link, they don't understand so to make it easy, I made screen shots so if you are a regular here, and someone asks you, maybe shoot them this thread Dont have hosting? here are some links: 1. www.photobucket.com 2. www.imageshack.us 3. http://www.gfxartist.com/about/donate 4.

PM one of the admins to make this special like the post-a-comment thread, otherwise there will be tons of questions this thread answers after it's gone from the main site... would be actually handy for other topics as well (perhaps we should make one special newbie thread ^_^, I could put something into the free software part)

I suggested a NOOB kit a long time ago in the threads...personally, if people are just too clueless to find the word FAQ at the top of the page, and find the answer...then they have no business posting..unless it's a language barrier...that I can understand.

I think this would make an excellent inclusion into the GFX framework, either as a stand-alone thread or a permanent icon in 'My Artwork' somewhere (a 'How To' button Martyn?) Just because they're artists and can get online to try and show their work doesn't mean they're familiar with the GFXA interface. Joining a new site is a little bit like starting at a new school or a new job - it doesn't matter how smart you are, it still blows your common sense and direction out of your ears. You also need to allow for those who are too shy or embarrassed to ask? The most common question I am asked by newbies is how the hosting concept works, which images are cached in GFX and which aren't. [Message edited on 10/01 @141]

Though there is a guide in the FAQ section... http://www.gfxartist.com/about/FAQ/2802/ ...I do think it would be usefull to keep this as a sticky. So there.. sticky it is.

TJVerhagen just an idea can this be placed under 'Special Threads' ? or maybe way down the bottom at http://www.gfxartist.com/about/FAQ/2802/ if needed I can make the graphics more clearer and understandable

Nice guide. Very informative. You're tags for "italics" in the bottom box are incorrect though - you've duplicated the "bold" tags.
