Very helpful!

How about including the tutorials and other information from the blog? Here is sort of a list of the ones available. Unfortunately, the original links are all broken. I'm not sure if all of the information is current.

Oh, and a tutorial with pictures on how to insert pictures in reviews would be super wonderful. If I had a dollar every time someone asked that question...

I'm actually going through and doing those for the forums so that they'll show up right here so we don't have to worry about breaking links in the future.

I know this doesn't have to do with what you're doing, but I'd like EF to be able to make it easier for us when we are searching for our monthly assignments. There's only the option of no reviews on it or all reviews. I'd like for there to be a option for 1-2 reviews that way I don't get my hopes up when I find an item in my price point and then realize it has more than the allowed reviews on it already. That would save some time in the hunt for monthly assignments to do a review on. Just a thought.

It's not exactly a tutorial, but how about the FAQ for new Editors that I suggested previously. With this current round of new editors, we are already seeing the same questions being asked again. I think it would be very helpful and cut down on on redundant questions. We may have to have all editors brainstorm to make sure all issues are covered.

Awesome info! Thank you for posting this.

I do have a suggestion though. I think that more of the programs should be explained. I haven't been able to find anything on referrals (im a blogger with EF and I have friends that would like to join the program and use the points program, but I have no clue where a referral link/code is). I was told there is a referral credit if you bring in others to do the affiliate program? But im lost as to how to do this or go about it.

If you have any information about this, can you please email me at cmex84@yahoo.com...Tha nk you!
