Description
The past couple of days, I've noticed some comments from people saying that they didn't know how to get to their notes to send one if they didn't have any new notes in their inboxes. So I've created a simple tutorial on how to go about getting to the Notes so you can send one, and tacked on a simple how to send one for new Users of dA. I hope this helps! :3This is also my first tutorial on anything....so yeah...[hopes it went all right]
EDIT:
Thank you so much to ^ginkgografix for picking my tutorial for a DD!

How fucking retarded do you have to be to not be able to figure this out without a tutorial. Even if you can't, that's the point of the FAQ. Seriously, why is this even a deviation. How is a new member that's so daft they can't figure out how to use the note system going to figure out how to find a tutorial that tells them how to use the note system? This is beyond pointless.

Well, judging from the amount of "thanks for the tut" comments it's got, seems like some people needed the help to me

I agree. I mean if this deviation is a DD, then this tutorial must be very necessary. But if it is, then people seem to be getting more and more lazy/idiotic.
Honestly, nothing against the deviation. I'm glad its helping these people out.

why go and bash this? You're saying you had aspolutely no thoughts or concerns about how to navigate this site when you first became a deviant?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I looked in the FAQ to resolve those concerns.

That if a newb doesn't know about the FAQ? They first thing you can successfully and quickly master is dAsearching. They could search "How to make a note" quicker than discovering the existence of the FAQ.

Are you fucking kidding? The Help button is on every page of the site.

Slow noobs may not know. I have a retarded-tutorial in my gallery about how to submit literature b/c my friend didn't know what the hell she was doing.

If they're too slow to figure out how to click the button that says HELP on every page, this tutorial isn't going to help them either.

LOL This.
I'm sorry, maybe I'm a turd sandwich but this tutorial won't really help anyone who doesn't know how to send a note.

Eh, not the artist's problem, really. They didn't choose to make it a DD. Someone suggested it, and someone approved it.

It's stupid all on its own, regardless of being a DD.

Hey shut the f*** up if you have nothing nice to say about it then dont troll

OH NO I HAVE AN OPINION IT MUST BE TROLLING
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
thats not really a opinion by saying THIS IS FUCKING POINTLESS or whatever and plus maybe next time you should use constructive criticism
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Wait, how is that not an opinion?
Constructive criticism: Spend time making actual art instead of useless tutorials and then begging for DDs.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
She wasn't begging for it a friend suggested it to her and its not useless for new member that are having trouble and its not a opinion cause your useing harsh words and saying its terrible
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
Oh and by the way, you might want to check the dictionary definition of "opinion."
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Wow really.... very immature
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Knowing the definition of "opinion" is immature?

Holy punctuation, Batman!

"I vote this one needs a DD X3 'cause it is awesome hahaha"
That sure sounds like a suggesting herself to me.
It is useless for new members because if they're the type of people who have trouble finding things, how are they going to find this deviation? Also: the need for this tutorial is completely destroyed by the fact you can click the 'help' button on every page, type "notes," and click the first link to get all the information needed.

Oh. I was going to say it was sad if people didn't already know this. I guess if people were actually saying they didn't know how... XD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Haha, I know it was just a little something I put together more for fun I've always wanted to do a tutorial and I figured why not do one on something simple X3 and well yeah you know the rest hehe.

Seriously? Its like a tutorial for people who cant read, its not as if the note button is hidden.
Anyway, this isnt a rant at you, you have made a nice tutorial that shows newbies struggling to find their way around.
But I tut at dA that if you need a tutorial to find an important button, and you need to highlight this with a DD, something is wrong with their interface or explaining.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
But as for the artist...it is a nice tutorial. Very well put together. Great job!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
wow! thank you! ^^ lol
this also helps if you want to send the same thing to a lot of people, but don't want to type it over and over 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Haha, I hadn't thought about that but yeah! :3
And you're welcome ^w^

Well, dA note and message system are worsting and worsting...
Sorry, but Original Button is pretty glitched, the pencil (for edit things), and the note?
