How to make a new thread.
First open the Forums section, and find the sub-forum that suits your topic the best, if you are in doubt, just use General

Here is how the general forum-page look like. The enhanced button opens your new thread
How to insert pictures in the posts.
You need to upload the picture to either your own homepage, or to one of the imagehost-services like imgur
When you have done that, you copy the address of the image to your clipboard, and here in forum you insert a image-tag
That is the 9. button from left!
Paste the clipboard content between the tags
That will insert the image in your post.
How to properly link to external demos
Quite often people asks about a specific sound or instrument on-line. I would estimate that ~80% of these request are without the necessary infomation :p
When you ask these kind of questions, please..
Do insert a timestamp!
So like
Using private messages
Lets finish with how you can communicate with friends!
For that, the board has an Private-Messenger PM function.
Please do not send PMs to MODs unless we ask you too, or as answers to PMs we send to you.
To use PM:
* Click on the recipients name
That opens the profile for that person
Just under the persons profile-image, you will see "Contact >user<"
-and under there "Send Private Message"
Click on that, and write your message.
You can add more recipients, so you can send a group-message.
