Anyone can make a wb7 skin, with or without a wiki, to beat a dead horse, I spent 7 months on my first skin, no wiki, no forums, no.. nuthin. As far as Im concerned, making a skin is easier than navigating the wiki pages ![]()
roll ur sleeves up aspiring skunners, don't settle, don't take no for an answer! yooo can dew eeeet [e digicons]:karma:[/e]
Personally I feel that SD should be responsible for providing a current, in depth training PDF or Video for SKS if it wants to attract new skinners or educate those already walking down the path. ![]()

we're hoping to change that. each section of each page has a wiki link, mostly empty. I have found it frustrating to be working on some aspect that for whatever reason had me perplexed. clicking on the help tab and the wiki link only to find it empty was well....
I feel lucky, I had the forums and people, like yourself, and others that would be gracious enough to answer the questions.
and John, you could help out if you wanted to, c'mon be a sport.

I wish I had time to be a sport, not enough hours in the day already, and barely making it week to week on this end.
I will always answer in forums, when i get the chance tho.

John, you are a sport and hope you know that I was just tugging your chain a bit cause of all the times we have had similar dialogs about this topic in the past. intent was humorous, hope I didn't fail too miserably.
and I also agree with you that Stardock has dropped the ball when it comes to providing the necessary documentation to ensure that their product is usable.

Jumping one link isn't "running all over".
Copying 96 or so pages of Winstep's Wiki and who knows how many Rainlendar has (and getting ok'd to reproduce and publish both) and update both?
If you had to do that or just put in two links bebi, which would you rather do?
