SpyderLovers School?

[TicketBait]

Who would be interested in learning more about the mechanics of SpyderLovers?



How to navigate the sight on your computer or iPad or phone? To post photos? To upload to youtube a video,

change your Avatar, Join a SpyderLovers Chapter, post a calendar event, or integrate spell check, use tapatalk

or just wrap tags

"around text correctly"

:clap:

Or lets say you know All that, but maybe someone knows how to do it faster or easier, or can just walk

you through it while your at Spyderfest by making something easier to read and understand because you are

visually seeing and doing it.

That's why I am posting this. I am no expert, but others are here. Since learning about Spyderfest and going

the last two years, just think this could be as valuable as we want to make it. And is a golden opportunity.

We might foster 10 more Bob Denman's :roflblack:

Sharing ideas is key to improving our communication, not that there
is anything wrong I enjoy reading, and also posting likes to threads I
have read and probably spend 5% of my time on/in the
Live Chat area and come across So many new forum members
that have never posted a question except in Live Chat. The problem
with doing it there is that at any given time there may be for example
as I am writing this 595 online users of which 172 are members and
423 are guests. The Guests never see what is happening :yikes: in chat and
can't contribute. The members will only see whats happening in the
Chat area if they are on the Forum Section or actually Join.

Would be a wonderful opportunity at the upcoming Spyderfest to celebrate and learn to share ideas and learn from

experts, tips and tricks with our forum. I would love to see a booth at Spyderfest for SpyderLovers, or a place

where a 1 or 2 hour class given by those that know different little things could present their ideas to those that

would like the info.

I remember talking to MurphyBrown at a Spyderfest and she knew how to upload or post photos and I think video

on her iPad. That I would like to learn how to do. Lamont knows how to do Ustream and that would be another

thing I would like to learn.

Want to have the chance to meet the various SpyderLovers who post on this Forum! Every single one of you!

But with the event becoming Larger and Larger that could prove difficult.

And I want to only know you by your handle here unless we break bread together. And the reason why is if

your handle is " blah blah blah" and then you tell me your real name is " Bob Smith", well thats just too many

names to remember. If you don't like the handle you came up with earlier ask the administrator to this site if you can change it.

There are allot of Great Supporting Sponsors coming to this Great Event and I am sure Len has that set up great, Just think we should have our Forum Spot lighted as well

SpyderLovers School

I know this is a long post, tried to keep your interest with pictures and different font. Been thinking about this for a while.
The more educated we are about our communication skills the more we will participate and the more we will stay SpyderLovers!
P.S. please forgive me as spell check was not used and no animals were harmed while posting this thread.

So my question is, What do you think, I learn so much from all of you!

Great question arntufun! Don't have the answer for you. Are you going to Spyderfest, cuz if not ... Just had a brain storm, maybe even for those that won't beable to make it to Spyderfest they could submit questions, and depending on the volume we could get some answered at spyderfest and we could record the answers and you could here it here on Spyderlovers maybe live upstream or what ever that is called!

Great idea, guest lectures would be really cool. like that idea.:thumbup:

 

[CyncySpyder]

I think it would be very helpful

and a booth at Spyderfest would be great. I only know what I figured out and i am not sure that I am doing it right even when it works.

 

[Spyder Smyles]

This is a great idea. I always seem to have problems with the search feature, I try searching something before I post and nothing shows up. So I post the question and then someone comes back and tells me it was already posted and how to get to it. Won't be at Spyderfeast this year as I will be at Disney with the Grandkids but I am sooooo looking forward to attending my first spyderfest next year :dg2:

 

[SpyRyd]

Great Idea

Suggest handouts if possible. Don't do anything fancy on this site but would like to learn some tips that would help viewing videos and posting photos and links. Handouts would provide a handy reference to use on the occasions we want to do something out of the ordinary.

 

[Woody]

Count me in. We might consider making step by step instructions using screen shots pasted into PowerPoint and converted to a PDF file then posted by topic. I would volunteer to help do so, although my SL tech knowledge is low.

Yes I think for some learning how to search for an answer to a question they have can be very beneficial. I use it all the time first :thumbup:

:agree:, hopefully Len or Lamont will see this thread
and put something together. I would also volunteer
my time to the school project. I think having guest
lectures speak for a couple minutes each about
various newbie issues/ questions and also intermediate
and advanced things could be beneficial to all.

Divorce all eleven of us; have her lawyer clean all of us out... move someplace warm and tropical; leaving "us" in a cold, dark place! :shocked:

There are instructions here on how to do just about everything, FAQ but many haven't been shown where that is, it's kind of like if you go to a library looking for a specific book, you might have trouble finding it, or even understanding it. Hands on visual approach always works better.

Great idea Woody, are you going to be at Spyderfest?

And wonderful offer, we will pass that along:thumbup:

Brain storm as I type this. I mean wouldn't it be neat if right where
our avatar is and post count, where we are from, it said if you were
also going to be attending Spyderfest. Even if it was a small symbol
like IV for #4 SF . That way when you are answering a thread you will
also be able to know you will have the opportunity to meet that person
as well.

Please keep the ideas and suggestions coming.

I'm really glad that this project is being undertaken; the only button that I could ever get to work in here; is the one that says, "Submit Reply"! :shocked:
