I've thought that it could be a good idea for some of us to spend some time when we get a tutorial and add it to the WIKIFAQ. I mean, every tutorial that we could think of. That way we could have every tutorial well organised inside our WIKI. There are tons of tuts spread all over the internet, and
that's the "problem". Just a simple compilation task, to keep making this site the best QB resource in the internet.

Thoughts?

Too many tutorials...!
The wikiFAQ needs expanded title abilities -- get rid of the limitations and requirements and just have an N-length string.

I also have problems with the WIKI... I think it needs modifying so there is a link to the main page from every page, and a link to the main subject page from each subject, cos moving around in the WIKI is a b*tch
Though your idea isn't bad. How about we start with the ones right here on qbasicnews? (I'll do it now).

Thanks. About any modification to the WIKI source, you sould ask HD as he was who adapted it to our needs. And I guess he's on hollydays or something, I haven't seen him in a while.
This afternoon I'll add Mallard's tutorials.

Yeah, I haven't seen HD for a while now either.
I'll PM him with my request when I see he's been back.

Maybe you could put up a list of links to tutorials on other sites, organized by subject. I mean, there's only a few billion out there, so why reinvent the wheel?

I don't think so. When we don't only link to those tutorials, we can have a look at these and change them where's a need to.
Another reason for NOT linking is that we can do all those tutorials in the same design what looks far more good.
