We have tried to make it as simple to add a tutorial to this site as possible. To further aid you in adding your tutorial, we have included numerical guides within the upload form which cross-reference this page. The numbers referred to below correspond with the numbers included in the tutorial upload form.

First things first, go to 'Create Content' and click on the 'Create' button next to Tutorial.

1. Enter the Title of your tutorial. This should be self-explanatory, but please consider that your tutorial will be listed in our index under this title, so you may wish to make it relevant to your subject!
2. Enter a brief description of your tutorial. This section will appear on the teaser view for your tutorial and is useful in aiding people to assess the relevance of a tutorial when browsing. Please note that this section does not support html - text only please!
3. Enter tags. Please choose a tag or tags from each of the boxes. There are two types of tags which are required for tutorials:-
   • Application - these tags reference what programme your tutorial is compatible with. If your tutorial is compatible with multiple programmes, please hold down ctrl to select more than one.
   • Type - these tags are for a description of the subject your tutorial covers. If more than one is relevant, please hold down ctrl to select more than one.
4. Upload an image of the finished tutorial. The image can be uploaded directly from your computer to the site and should be an image of your finished result. This will display in the teaser view of the tutorial, as well as the top of the main page of your tutorial.
