list of tutorials - guides, big tutorials, links
NEW VERSION AT MY GRAPHICS JOURNAL HERE
Because I hated the chaos in my bookmarks.
Updated: 12. Dec. 2008
NOT DIAL-UP FRIENDLY!
NOTES:
1] None of these were made by me.
2] Do not hotlink these images please. I uploaded these on my own photobucket.
3] Do not ask me to link one of your tutorials. I only list my favorites.
4] Graphics larger than 100x100 are linked as thumbnails hence the quality seems to be worse than it really is.
5] If you don't want to have your tutorial here leave a comment and I'll delete it.
6] If you find a dead link leave me a comment please *puppy eyes*
