Wanted: Your ideas for new tutorials on the forum!
Posted: Thu Oct 06, 2011 11:18 pm
Ok boys and girls put your thinking caps on!
There are some great lockpicking forums and resources on the internet, and I think this is among the best of them. There are a lot of fantastic tutorials here made by the users, some with videos, others with great pictures to illustrate what they're doing. I think it’s a better “how-to” resource than most of the paid courses I’ve seen.
Let’s keep the momentum going and further expand the content here!
In this thread, I’d like your ideas for what new tutorials you’d like to see on the forum. If it’s a tutorial you feel qualified to make yourself, that’s excellent. But even if it’s not something you think you can do yourself, please post the idea anyway. Let’s get the idea out there and hopefully someone who DOES have the skill will pick up the ball and run with it. Let’s brainstorm and see what we can come up with.
I don’t want to discourage participation, but to keep things as productive as possible, before posting a new idea, consider using the search feature on the forum and take two or three minutes to do a quick check and see if a tutorial has already been posted which covers your idea. However, due to differences in search terms, etc, I imagine a few ideas will still get posted here which already have tutorials elsewhere on the forum. If you notice such a request and you know where the tutorial is located on this forum, please reply to that post in this thread, quoting their idea and the direct link to that post to help guide that person to it.
I realize there is an entire subforum dedicated to this very subject, the very subforum where I’ve posted this new thread. However, the last post on ANY thread in this section was June 23, 2011, about three and a half months ago. So I thought we needed to breathe some new life into it.
Let’s keep it positive, and keep spreading the knowledge folks!

After mulling over this idea, I think I'm going to put up a prize for the best new tutorial that is made and posted to the forum in response to one of the suggestions posted in this thread. Over the next day or two, I'm going to figure out what I have that might make a half decent prize, and come up with some criteria for determining the winner. I'll post it in another edit to this post in the next couple days once I hash this out in my head.
