If you have a question regarding any architect problem PLEASE check the FAQ thread which is stickied at the top of this forum.
This will be much faster for you as it covers most of the questions most frequently asked (that is why it is called FAQ), and also questions you have not thought to ask yet, but probably will soon. It covers things in detail and is not somebodys own 'take' on the architect profession, but has been built up over time by many of the longer established and most revered master architects in SWG. It is continuously updated and revised, the answers given can be trusted as they have been proven and approved by the community.
If by any chance you do not find your answer in the FAQ (and please, remember to check the first few posts as it is too big to fit all in the first one) then feel free to ask your question in the forum.
Here is a link to the thread:
DVNCE - Please do not sticky this, people seem to be not checking the stickies, let's try to keep this to the top with bumps, we can always start a new one if it gets too big, but then again maybe people will take note if it gets big enough.

Lithium's graphical editor is, frankly, horrible, as we all know.God help you if you're on anything but IE.
Easiest way to make a clicky.
1) Type up your post, then copy it to notepad so lithium can't eat it.
2)Paste your post.
3) Click on the "Edit as HTML" button below.
4) In another window, cut and paste the url right before the words you want to make clicky.
5) In front of the url, type <a href="
6) After the url type ">
7) After the word you want to make clicky type </a>
8) Post.
9) Now this is the most important step. NEVER ever touch it again. If you edit it, Lithiums handy graphical editor will strip out all the html and you'll have to start all over.
Now any bets on how many edits it's gonna take to get the </a> stuff to show up?

Why don't we just rename the FAQ to:
"How to win teh int3rn3t and oth3r l33t sploits"
Maybe then they'll stumble onto it.

I'm still in favor of "CLUES FOR THE CLUELESS" - for some reason everyone reads that hoping to see a big juicy flame.

Actually, I'm now waiting for someone to come along with the "Hey, I'm not clueless! Why are you talking to me that way?"

I tried with the polite approach first, gave it a meaningful title that explained very clearly what it was all about 'NEED ARCHITECT HELP?? - Please check FAQ first before posting here". I really honestly and truly thought that that would make it noticeable. I was therefore a little surprised when I checked back about 45 mins later to see that my post was number 2, it had been superceded by a post entitled 'Ore mining units question', which had been posted some 30 minutes or so after this one, at which time this would have been the latest post.
So obviously being so BLATANTLY clear does not register with some folks, hence I must agree with ZenDragon and try a new tack 'CLUES FOR THE CLUELESS'.

It's off the first page and we now have posts asking about floorplans and about OMUs not crating.
