Making/Updating build threads
« on: 02 December 2012, 15:11 »
I was curious to see how long people on here spend compiling their build threads or updating and replying. I have on several occassions began to compile my build thread only to stop as soon as I am greeted by a disorienting mess of pictures upon opening my picture folder  :laugh:

I envy those with the patience to sit down and produce a build thread but I suppose I have only myself to blame for not having made one from the start.

Interesting question. I know I probably spend 1hr + a week reading build threads!

You buy a car and start making changes.

As you make the changes you take photos and then every time you make a change, you update the build thread.

Doesn't take long each time and helps you understand what you've done and sometimes why you've done it.

Saving it up doesn't make any sense!
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

sorry i should have been more precise, how do i get the build thread into the mk4 dub projects?

i take it that i start a thread in the mk4 section stating that it is a build thread and then one of the moderators move it over??

No, you PM JV or another adult (such as Chuff) and they start the thread.  You then add to it.
