If you want to learn how to use the site, you should follow the @discobot tutorial you’ll find in your messages (click on your profile icon on the top right, click on the messages icon, open up the message from discobot)

You can also click on discobot’s profile, from the link above, and click the “Message” button to go through the new user tutorial. Sending discobot a message saying “@discobot start tutorial” will also start the new user tutorial. Lots of options :slight_smile:

excelent, thank you, i feel better now!

Okay it may be a little hidden.. (speaking of images and not blend files :wink: ) but it’s in the initial post:

And the following text about trust levels..

It’s an original feature of the used software.. which does indeed also have a slighty hidden documentation.. firstly not via → Doc(umentation) and using something in the URL like www..../doc.. in any link but via → Community using meta.discourse.org and then being the Documantaion-link being link to a forum itself ( of course using discord.. itself ):

( not to confuse with the other meta named coorporation.. which is the most stupid idea ( ← personal opinion ) for a name i think.. see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meta .. )

So it’s the usual recursive problem:

You can’t use the software to inform yourself if you can’t inform youself by using the software..

:joy_cat:

But.. : Here are non-artificial people answering !! :partying_face:

Super, yeah, it got me confused at first, but i see the logic now,i really apreciate your answer. Cheers

Hi,
I’d like to post a paid opportunity in the Jobs category but when I click on the button it says I can’t create a new topic in that category.
Can you tell me what I need to do to post the job please?

34

Assuming you’re trying to post directly into the Jobs category, you’ll need to go into the Paid Work sub category to be able to create a new post.

35

Added self promotion policy

36

Question:
Are only artworks from Finished Projects selected, or other sub-categories too?

37

Finished Projects and Animations :slight_smile:

38

Ah, thanks!

39

where/in what category should i post a “future” add-on question, so i would like to ask the Blender community if they would be interested in the add-on i want to build.

40

Marking this topic as ‘solved’. That’s a little weird as this is not a question, but it helps us track open topics :wink:

41

What is the featured row? I’m not sure if I ask this here. but I didn’t think it would be nice to ask the question in someone elses thread.

42

You have properly seen it already… it’s on every page at the top and gets hidden when you scroll down… or revisit a thread you follow:

TheFeaturedRow
TheFeaturedRow1140×500 64.9 KB

And changes from time to time when new awesome artwork is publishd here on BA… :thinking: so almost daily… :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

43

Where can I ask for jobs. I know that there is a section for people asking for artists. but I would like to ask if anyone could use my particular skills I am not a professional and I am not so much looking for a job as looking for experience.

44

We don’t have a place for that, but you can reach out to people making volunteer job postings and see if they want your help

45

Ok thank you

46

I think I will post a thread in the jobs category (I hope that’s ok :slightly_smiling_face: its just easier than scrolling through thousands of jobs looking for one that suits perfectly.

47

I want to start a thread where I post links to all the most useful blender resources and tutorials I have come across, and asking others to do the same. I just wanted to know if there is something like this already.

48

No idea :slight_smile: feel free to start one.
