Hi, I keep reading through the message boards for inspiration and advice to help with my own tree. I haven't been doing it very long and its a slow process getting started. One thing I've noticed is that several people say 'read the tips for newbies'. I cant find this anywhere and I'm really interested to find it. I found a link on someones post but it says invalid thread.

Does anyone have the link or at least explain how i can search for it.

Thank you
Kelly

It used to be stickied at the top of the Tips Board but it seems to have disappeared.

I've tried the advanced search on the left of the screen but I can't find any of the threads with tips for newbies on there either.

Hi Kelly

I've nudged up one thread for you. There is another called Absolute Basics - might be on TTF board. I'll nudge it up if I can find it.
