I like to blog it sometimes. But I think the best spot is searching for what you’re trying to do, the posting on that forum. I’ll make these loooong detailed posts, edit them again and again, pics, obfuscated pastebin text, screen shots, the whole kit and caboodle. It usually helps others that way, and sometimes, m searching for a bit of code that I can’t remember and find my own post again. Ha! Ftw
