Members Tom Katzke Posted October 30, 2006 Members Report Posted October 30, 2006 As a custom knifemaker, we regularly use step by step photo tutorials much like iforge does but photos, i have done several forging tutorials with a short to sometimes long descripton of whats going on in each photo this way, as they say a picture is worth a million and once posted in a thread everyone can ask questions ect and then perhaps the could be pinned for others to come to later. Id be willing to do a sheath tutorial on how i do it, make it fit the knife correctly ect. My vote is to just post it in the correct section that deals with knife sheaths. That way people can find it. Writting an instructional article with pictures is not rocket science. People do it all the time. That is what magazines are made of. Tom Katzke Central Oregon Quote

That is what magazines are made of.Tom Katzke Central Oregon Tom said it all. We do it all the time on Custom Knife forums some using this very same invision board. Often very good ones are "pinned" at the top of whatever the subject is relevant too,others have tutorial categories where all tutorials are placed. Just some ideas for you.

Moderator Johanna Posted November 2, 2006 Moderator Report Posted November 2, 2006 Well, c'mon people...we have unlimited webspace, and I doubt there is much dsenette and I couldn't figure out tech wise. We need material and content, no problems I can foresee in presenting it, and the interest from the members and guests is certainly here. Who wants to be first?

Members dsenette Posted November 2, 2006 Members Report Posted November 2, 2006 an instructional article with pictures is not rocket science. People do it all the time. That is what magazines are made of. just for my 2 cents on this...i agree...thre's nothing to writing up a tutorial or article or anything...as long as you've got the skills to back it up (which i know you guys do)....the difference here (and in the magazines it's the same) is formatting and consistancy...we would like for it to look proffessional...not just like a bunch of steps thrown into a pot....now...like i said...you guys probably won't have to worry about the formatting...me and johanna can take care of that...i'm just saying....
