I don't want to take the piss cos it was nice of you to share the link and all, but this is an AM forum. People that don't know what "the interweb" is need to read stuff like "make sure it has pictures and you're not retarded when writing a blog". It's the same old, same old info regurgitated by people that really don't know any true knowledge themselves that they've gained from experience.

Just my 2p, tell me to STFU if you want.

Moved. The post behind the link is ok, but it'll do more good in the newbie section.
