Welcome back to the list dio


Billy: Just had a read of the tweaks section, the only thing I can see is that it might be a good idea to add where to find the option to turn off fast user switching
apart from that it all looks great

 

[rich99million]

that's a very nice little compact guide - like you say too much information can scare a lot of people off

having written the previous HowTo I know how hard it can be to cater for everyone, in my case I chose to go the "complete idiot" route as that's my personal preference for instructions. I like the way you've done it though - it should work well with what Billy has already done

 

[rich99million]

Well we should just see what Rich wants to do. I'm sure he'll discover this thread at some point.

You don't get out of it that easily
It's your guide so you decide how you want to do it - either that or we can put it to some sort of poll

Personally I can see the real benefit of having a nice quick guide to start the thread off with - then once people have got going and are hooked on the project they can read further on.

There's also a good argument for keeping the two guides seperate and linking the two with a link for the short guide at the top of the long guide to catch those with really short attention spans and links to the long guide where needed in the short guide (as Joe has already done) - however as we're limited to one sticky for the folding team the only way that would really work is if Joe's guide is put at the end of the advanced guide

So errr..... you'll have to work it out
Either way they will complement each other excellently so I don't think it matters too much which way it's done just as long as people are made aware that both exist
