: : I know that there is at least one messageboard which I go to that has an FAQ which people can read to answer some common questions. This prevents the same questions from being answered multiple times. Putting the walkthroughs on the main page was a good step, but perhaps a modmaking FAQ as well?

I will create an ultimate modmaking FAQ eventually... I've been planning it forever, and I just haven't gotten around to creating it. TUDSMAG (The Ultimate Dink Smallwood Module Author's Guide) will have everything, chapters that deal with specific elements of creating D-Mods and so on. I've written an introduction so far... hey, since I'm doing nothing here and have a week off, maybe I'll work on it.

That's sort of what Mike Snyder at wyndo did.
The best thing about it was that it had a table of contents. I was thinking of making a comprehensive tut. with a good index, but my knowledge is far from comprehensive.
