When the portal was added, an experimental feature was added to the site. We added a showcase and also a means for people to submit articles to the site, we want to collect a range of tutorials here for the benefit of everyone.
Only one person at the time of writing this has submitted an article, that is Druid. Thanks mate. It is a guide of how to create the zooming chessboard effect in his vision factory cracktro conversion using freebasic.
You might have noticed that Druid's user name is a different colour in the online list, that is because he has the title "Contributing Author"
DRUID'S PROFILE (http://dbfinteractive.com/index.php?action=profile;u=59)
These tutorials are now considered so important that there will be a Karma and post boost for each tutorial added and approved, please see the topic in the announcements forum. Druid will be having his Karma boost today and I will be submitting my first tutorials to the site :D
If you have an interesting technique, please use the tutorials!
NB. A tutorial is NOT a code snippet without explanation, we are looking for proper how to articles with a high level of explanation, code snippets should really go into the forum. If there is time, we might well go through the forum and find the most useful code snippets and add a code snippets section to the showcase.
Looking forward to your articles!
New tutorial online..

Cool. I hope it is useful to someone.
I've done all your tutorials since I've waned to start with freebaisc for some time but not found the help i needed.
:clap: Just want to say the tutorials are great, even for me with previous programming experience. :clap:
Well done Paul, that's made my day :)
I do plan on making a lot of these to help people get started. Also when we have guys like Rick and Druid submitting articles too, it will only get better :)
