The newest video in the series I'm working on... Linking to an Item. We know this is such a common question, so I wanted to showcase this simple Writing.Com tool. Hopefully, this will make it a lot easier for people to not only understand, but help point folks in the right direction to learn how to do it.  Video: Linking to an ItemAlso, note that in "Writing.Com 101" , we've now included a link in the Table of Contents to Writing.Com Tutorial Videos (Vimeo), which will take you right to our page on vimeo.com. Our page there will house all of our tutorials, so bookmark it (or don't, since it's in 101).  Hope you are finding these helpful... more to come! Next up, Full Screen Edit for Premium Memberships!

 Happy Valentine's Day! Each year, we run a Romance/Love Costumicon subscription period for February... but I just realized we never opened that up! So, I've set Costumicons up for another 100 Gift Point subscription that will last thru February 28th. * For those not familiar with costumicon subscriptions, please note: They are temporary. The purchase grants the purchaser or giftee the use of costumicons until February 28th. At that point, the subscription ends end it's back to a regular portfolio case. Full time access to costumicons is reserved for our members with a paid Premium Membership or above. Best wishes, ~~SM |
