Forum Guide & help section

I had a thought today (I put that one in the record book) while posting to a new user on some of the forum features they could use to help answer there questions. I wondering if a forum guide and help section could be posted. Like how to use some of the tabs at top and what there for. And maybe a help section for people like me that could post questions like how do I do a avatar or post pics. Know the moderators have there hands full. Thought if a guideline post was started people unlike myself that can actually spell & write could put up post on how to use this forum. Then after every thing is covered a moderator could come along orginize it and find a place for it. (Just like Magic) May be this could help some people and cut back on redonedent questions. Just a thought.

HELP: could some one tell how to Quote just a sentance or two with out Quoteing the whole post? Had it figured out on the old forum.

Just trying to help.

Critter yes James dose cover the guide lines. But it dosen't go into details of how to use the some of the features of the forum and how to use them. I just thought this may be away to make the forum more user friendly for computer challenged people like myselfe. And away to contribute something to this forum to take some work off of the moderators hands.

Remember it is just a thought.
