Step-By-Step Tutorials
NOTE: See related discussion thread in Sandbox Forum: CLICK HERE to see this discussion. If you'd prefer to see one of these tutorials created first, then please voice your opinion at this discussion thread.
NOTE: This is a temporary zone for me to hash out these tutorials before they are made visible on the front page. Then I plan on moving them in 1 by 1. :-D (-Clownfish)
NOTE: None of these Step-by-Step tutorials have been created yet.
NOTE: If you would like to help make some of these tutorials for the Sandbox community we'd be glad to have your help! :-D Create your wiki account and start contributing, or come here: Contact The Team tell us how you'd like to help out!
NOTE: If you help make a Step-by-Step tutorial, please try to:
1. Keep your wording very clear and easy to follow.
2. List steps in a numbered fashion (e.g.:
- 1. Do this
- 2. Look here
- 3. Go here
- 4. Rename this to
- 5. Move this here
3. Provide 'keywords', verbatim 'titles', and 'landmarks' often for users to 'look for' and 'follow along' with easily.
4. Provide pictures or video often ...(attached {preferably in case external host disappears} or linked)
5. Provide the type of operating system you based this Step-by-Step tutorial off of (e.g. Windows XP, Linux:Debian, Mac OSX)
NOTE: Lets agree on a 'Step-By-Step Tutorial' format so they look consistent. Suggest some format ideas via our forum on this discussion thread: CLICK HERE to see this discussion
Basically these are things I have learned to do in Sandbox over the past few months. Some of these ideas I have gathered from Sandbox gods like Calimer & Hirato ((Thanks for your time and effort guys :-D )), some I have found on this wiki, some I have found on the forum from our awesome sandbox community, and others I have stumbled upon myself.
Thanks! Let me know :-D -Clownfish
