Guys, you keep promising us that you have done these things but you dont share with us how.

The idea of a community based editing forum is to share such knowledge and ideas - I dont want these forums to become a place where people simply boast about what can/cant be done, or what they have/havent done without actually providing clear indication of how, preferably in the form of code (not a screenshot).

Too many times I see cryptic posts like 'Heh I know how to do that' or 'I have done it' from people, and threads that go on for days without actually telling anybody anything other than 'I can do it and heres proof'. These do nothing to progress the editing community - all this does is serve to place yet another barrier between those who 'can' and those who 'cant', and the idea of this forum in particular is to remove such barriers - it is a place for bringing problems and sharing solutions and knowledge.

If that code and its idea/concept is such a closely guarded secret because it is part of an ongoing/unreleased project, then it is best kept completely to yourself until the code itself becomes public - when people are free to disect and learn from it anyways.

Thanks!
