Title: Microstockgroup Knowledge Base
Post by: leaf on April 04, 2008, 06:38
There is now a knowledge base incorporated into the site (hopefully it will be more so in the future)

You can see a link at the top or click here to view it
http://www.microstockgroup.com/knowledgebase/doku.php

that link goes to just an overview page where I have set up a few suggested topis.  The point of it is to define lots of words that people wonder about, give info on the individual stock sites, links and info to informative blogs and other information etc...

It works as a wiki so anyone who is a member here can edit pages as they see fit.

If you have a blog or other type of informative site (if you are the owner of a stock site for example), feel free to add it to the wiki.  Add a page for your site on the wiki, with a little information about your site, and then that is where you make an external link to your website.

Hopeful it will be useful in the end.

That's a great idea Leaf and I'm sure will be very useful especially to the newbies.    :)

Leaf,

It is a good idea, my only thought is that if all the sites add their own details won't you lose out on any referrals gained by peole who find the forum via search engines, which is what I thought kept this forum funded?

well if that area of the site actually gets used then I will figure something out then.  It wouldn't be to hard to stick a link in somewhere.

I think it'll get a lot more attention and use if you change the link from 'Knowledge Base' to 'Wiki'.

That's neat, Leaf!  I hope I can contribute with something there. 

What about a topic for tutorials?  I was planning to write one about stitched images (as in SP I see some so poorly done).

Regards,
Adelaide

not a bad idea.  I have started an airea in the overview for tutorial type things... not sure what the best way to ogranize the overview is, but I guess it can be updated later.  Thanks to those who have added so far.
