        Since this goes along with what you’re doing, and no one seems to care for my post (in page 4 of Feathercoin Discussion and falling more and more behind lol) I’m just going to give these to you.

        Hopefully you can make good use of it and assure me my few hours of work didn’t go to waste :)

          We could continue together? Get a complete list on what we need and get some people to help us? ;)

            The Google Docs page I have there pretty much contains the complete layout as well as what we still actually need. It really just needs the actual tutorials/videos to complete it, and of course for bushstar to make the calculator and implement the page itself. I made a video for the pool portion and it’s linked there too (although the audio kinda sucks, I don’t know if someone would be able to clean it up a bit).

            I put in the title need contributors but got nothing so far as you can see lol.

                    I updated the OP a little.

                    @ aysyr
                    In your google docs, you already started a bit with writing about ‘What is mining’ and ‘How to make money’.
                    Could you make a new topic and make the guide ‘What is mining? And how and why do i make money with it?’

                      I’m going to be busy with graduation, relatives, and work the next week but I"ll try to put it together when I get the chance.

                              Thanks Aysyr, i added it to the OP.

                              Little bump, anyone wants to make a tutorial on how to buy FTC and/or how to get money to an exchange (BTC-e.com for example), thanks.

                                I got coins on eBay then opened a account at vircurex then sent my coins from eBay and started trading like that. It was so easy! :P

                                    Can you add a link to the protocol FAQ to the starter guide, it answers a lot of questions we don’t need to reproduce…

                                        Would it be an idea to add something like this CGminer tweaking guide?
                                        https://teksyndicate.com/forum/litecoin/how-tweak-your-settings-and-squeeze-khs-out-your-card-using-cgminer/137706

                                        I’m still new to this, so I can’t vouch for the quality of the advice given there and whether or not it’s safe for your hardware. But I found it to be interesting reading and I definitely got a better understanding of what you can do to get the most bang for your buck :)
