Forum Feature Tutorial

I am still quite new to the forums since I am constantly asking on how to do this, and how to do that when it comes to some of the features in the replys. Lists, code, img, and whatnots I am still behind on how this will help me in my replies. I have already mastered the the [youtube] [/youtube], but the rest is still unkown to me.
Thus I am suggesting a sticky topic in the site discussion giving you a written examples or a video tutorial of how to use these features in the replies, all done by professionals of the forums. I for one want to fully use these features in future topics of mine, but am lacking the know-how about how to use them fully.
Tutorials will include:
1.) How to use the Img feature without having to
---A.) download the pic and then upload the pic
---B.) upload the pic straight from you rcomputer.
2.) How to use the [youtube] [/youtube] feature without posting the link.
3.) How to use the list, list=, and [*]
4.) How to use the URL
5.) Examples of how to make a good topic with these features.
6.) whatever else is left or added later.

Moved to server discussion. Not a valid post for the ideas/suggestions forum.

Still, excellent idea. We've had a few forum advice type threads (e.g. Rokkr's recent announcement which included instructions on the youtube and spoiler tags), but it would be nice to compile everything into one convenient (and preferably stickied) thread.
I should've worded that better. What I mean to say is still new to the features of the forums. or something like that.

Ah, yeah, that's reasonable then Fatty.
And Intelli--if you're going to move it somewhere other than the Ideas and Suggestions section, wouldn't it be more appropriate for the "Site Discussion" area?

Whoa whoa whoa whoa intelli. Why did you remove the poll? This was a suggestion and I wanted to see if everybody liked it, and if the majority voted yes. then it got implimented. :/ Sides I don't see why you did the whole move/edit anyway. Care to explain?

Ideas/suggestions area is not for stuff users can create themselves.

Ugh. -_- that is why I made this a suggestion in the first place. The whole idea was "For someone with knowlegde of the features of the forums" to make a well informative topic to instruct others on how to use every feature properly, and as well to educate them in producing outstanding layouts with these features when writing the first post or a reply to a post. Then have that topic whos knowledge was shared stickied in the "site discussion" part of the forums while the erson continues to update the topic with examples and tutorials when new features come out. If I was educated to use said features, I wouldn't have made this whole topic.
