    Default Creative Help FAQ

    There are a lot of helpful tips and tricks in this here forum but they can be hard to find (especially for newer members). So I’ve created an index in an FAQ format to help navigate the various creative questions that have been answered. (Yes, I am bored!)

    great post penev! ::goes to give some rep..:: just one suggestion if you don't mind. I noticed that all of these link to threads, but some of the questions are answered in just one or two posts. For this, i would recommend clicking on the number of the post in the top right corner(you have to click the actual number, not the # sign next to it), so that it opens up the single post. That way folks don't even have to scroll and search for the info, it will be right there! If it took a few posts to answer the question, you could just link the few posts individually. You could also just title them "Answer #1, Answer #2, etc." or "Tip#1, Tip #2, etc." and then just highlight and link the word. This would get rid of all that long unattractive script(just for cosmetic purposes). Okay...shutting up now! Great work so far!

    Example:
    How do you link to an individual post?

    Great work p10

    I think you can change the title for "How do I make a randomiser?" as the answer don't contain randomisers, they describe how to do flickering lights.

    This isn't a double post violation as it is meant as a "Bump" or announcement (I'm looking at you LLBP!)
