Please add your signature when you add stuff here! (It's the second last icon in the toolbar above the edit window.) That way we can easily use the "Talk" feature etc. to hook up if clarification is needed. --Martin Flink (talk) 06:46, 24 February 2015 (CET)

Glossary I would love to see us add a glossary of terms to the wiki. I know that when I started trying to do the first tutorials I had no idea what, for example, an affine was when it was mentioned. Anyone starting off who may never have tried other fractal or image editing software may not know things like gamma, color speed and so on, affine, post, and so on.

I agree with this! We can link to words while writing or as a separate step afterwards. Andreas or Geoffrey, please setup a Glossary page and explain how we can add or link entries and explanations to it. Excellent suggestion Jane! --Martin Flink (talk) 06:53, 24 February 2015 (CET)

Installation Also, and I think you are working on this Chris, I think it may need to start with how to install Java., then how to install JWildfire.

I've done this already as a #jwftips, a while back. I will upload the text and images from that asap! Once done, it can be checked and updated as needed. --Martin Flink (talk) 07:00, 24 February 2015 (CET)

launcher Add instructions for creating a shortcut for j-wildfire-launcher.jar and adding it to the desktop. A lot of people have no idea of how to run from a command line.

Also previously done (as part of my old videos and I think I did a text and pics version in the "Tips and tricks" album too). I'll check and revert back. --Martin Flink (talk) 07:06, 24 February 2015 (CET)
