I think that the genius bar sticky help thread is a great idea, but it soon will be, as it's getting, too long. I think someone (not me) should turn it into a PDF and that way it can be better organized and have a fancy AI cover. That way it would be good to be able to refer to people too, and then whoever maintains it could just add to it as the thread in Genius Bar gets added to.

I'd maintain such a list, no problem.

So, it would be people ask for help, get the help, and then the Question and Answer go into a Weekly/Monthly PDF that people can go through. A web site would have a list with a download link and a list of every question asked in that "issue"

GO FOR IT.

I know it's off topic, but seriously Nebagakid...quit it with the guys. It's starting to piss some people off.

Back on topic. This is a great idea. Hope we can get it off the ground. I'll try to do anything I can do to help. PM me if you need me.

I'll try to use the stuff in the FAQ thread now and make something tonight. I just want something that contains troubleshooting techniques that is easy to sort through and find what you need. Because I believe that the FAQ thread will soon be too large to have to scroll through to find what you need.

Hopefully AI could host it, I guess I could if needed. I'll let you guys know once I make it.

You have debunked the topic of this thread!

But if you think he is using them a lot now, find some threads of when we got the new boards and updated smilies

Hey ast3r3x, are you on on this or not? Because I already started, just after I posted here (reply #1). It wouldn't be very genius like to do the work twice.

Well if you started. I'm a idea man, not a doer. I just want to emphasize that I think one of the most important things is the table of contents. I don't want to ask too much of you, so I'll help probably, but once your done, it would be nice to add some pictures maybe? I also don't know how much of a designer you are, but if you aren't into design, perhaps we could get someone to give it a cool look once the information is clearly presented, which IS the most important part. Man I have such good ideas, I should be a boss so I can tell people my ideas and they do it, because I suck at doing things.

Defiant you are so nice and helpful, I'll tell you what, I always liked Switzerland, but you just make me feel like its even better of a place because I imagine all the people like you

Hey ast3r3x, thanks for your kind words. Not all people are like me, after all, I'm the only one. Hehe

I have some UI design blood cells, so it should work fine. However, I will let you all see how it looks when I'm going to be close to finish it.

I don't know how much time this will need, but I know that mine can be from time to time a little bit limited, so don't expect miracles. But, I won't just leave it hanging for weeks. If I feel I'm no longer up to it, I will say so.
However, count me in as committed.

I will contact those who are concerned by this when the time comes.
