I am amazed at the number of people who can't make a link to a website, adjust an image filesize, or find a place to post a screen shot. This can help.

Everyone should know basic HTML. HTML is the language of the internet and it's been around a loooong time. It is very easy to make links, format text, or change color. There are many websites that can teach you the basics in a matter of minutes. Try this one.

Need a place to post a picture for free? Go here.

Is your image too large and need to shrink it? Want to adjust colors or make other edits? All you need is a super basic photo editing program. No need for $600 Photoshop when all you need to do is make a JPG that's a smaller filesize. VicMan's Photo editor is FREE and very easy to use. Making an 800x600 jpg with a quality of 60 is a good balance between file size and image quality.

Let's not forget that when it comes to SWG, Google, DSL/Cable internet, and 1 GB of RAM are your friends. AOL, Dial-up, and a GeForce FX 5200 are NOT your friends. It's 2004 people.

Maybe you should take your own advice and check your links, btw, they are all broken
