Would this be helpful to people if I took the time to compile this?

I am thinking about explaining the use of:
Using the My Uploads Module...
Managing your Personal image Gallery like uploading pics, creating albums, putting captions on pics...
Submitting News for the front page, Calendar Events, Downloads, Website Links...
Using Private Messages to communicate to other Members...
Getting your own SweetRides2001.com e-mail accounts and gaining access to the Squirrelmail Webmail Interface...

If there is anything else you need help with, please let me know. I like taking the time to install / code / configure these different featurs of the site, but it really does no good if no one uses them. I figure it is because people don't know what the different sections do, or don't know how to use them. This User Guide will hopefully alleviate that problem.

I look forward to the feedback from everyone, but especially from people other than 98gtvert (no offense... I know you already know how to use them).

I think it would help if I knew how to use the tools available on this site. About the most I can do is reply in a discussion and change my Avatar to another preset graphic. Everything else???

I am very pleased to see that people want to know more about how to use the site.

Keep an eye on this link:
http://www.sweetrides2001.com/content-cat-4.html

I have also setup a Navigation Link to the left called "Website User Guides" that will take you to the same spot. So, keep an eye out there as I create more manuals for you all to use!

I would like to resurrect this post to create some more guides for the site. Please let me know if you would like to know more about any particular section.

Tom in about two weeks I should have plenty of time at work that I can help you with this project. But work has been crazy due to it being crunch time to finish everything by april 15th.
