Hey - I "shared" a draft Instructable for others to review and comment.  But how would they reply to me with any revisions/approvals?  I tested by sending email to self but that did not appear to work well.  Suggestions welcomed.

Would it be possible to add a Pinterest share button?  I'm creating a board that aggregates a lot of the costume walkthroughs that I've favorite here in Instructables, and it would be great to easily get it to Pinterest.  Right now I'm having to copy and paste the link and do everything manually.  It would increase traffic to the Instructables site and really help Instructables users.  Thanks!

I've been using Corel R.A.V.E for simple animations. I am an amateur at it, but I got simple creations out of it. But I wonder if there are other types of animation creators out there. I would like to see from the Instructables community some animations they made too. Post them here for everyone to see!

Have clicked on the share and email to send to friend...how to make this work please... btw i just found your site  this morning and so far am loving it!!  but do want to share this site and its projects with friends.. please lmk what to do. thanks

How can you mod headphones to be just like urbanears? and i mean the headphone jack socket on the earpiece to share your music.

We had a new code release this morning, here is what went out - FB like and share buttons - dragging on create page works again - sorting fixes for contests if there are problems tell us in the bugs forums!

I need a 3D model to make a plastic piece for me and others.

I did a quick forum search, but didn't find anything that really fit my idea, but I've seen a lot of really cool things on instructables, followed some step by step or took the idea and customized a few steps or two, but wouldn't it be nice to have a section to share your own photos of the projects you've started by way of inspiration of an instructable (like Think Geek's "customer action shots")? Show what people have done with an instructable, how they modified/improved upon/or spectacularly failed (but got a great photo!) following an instructable.So call this a site suggestion: a column on each instructable possibly parallel to the comments where people can post their results. Especially with the many great creative minds here.

Is it possible to share my pro account with my spouse, where she has her own saved instructables and log in?   For example, at our greeting card website, American Greetings, I can add my spouse and my son (up to 5 household members) to my account with their own login and calendar reminders.  With Netflix, we can add each member of the family and we each have our own cue for things we want to watch.    If we cannot do this at this time, I would like to recommend this as a future feature to add.  My wife and I both enjoy Instructables, but it's silly to pay for 2 accounts when we are sitting together anyway.  The ideal situation would be what American Greetings offers, the ability to add my household members under a master account that allows them their own individual login and storage folder.  If you create this where any purchases are tied to the master account, it will help reduce fraud as people won't want others using their credit card.    I've never asked a question here.  I sure hope I get a notice when this is answered and where to find the answer!  Thanks for your time and consideration.

Congratulations to Instructables author gallactronics for catching the attention of Bill Gates!  He posted the Solar Scare Mosquito Instructable to his facebook page!  Mosquitos are a nuisance, and they also carry deadly diseases that kill over a million people every year.  The device works by creating ripples on the surface of still water to prevent mosquitos from laying eggs, and killing larvae that has already hatched.   Go check it out and leave a comment, or build one yourself!

A few Halloween pics from this year..The image note making function isn't working, so I'll just explain here..1: A spooky spread on a bloodsoaked (99cent) tablecloth2: Haunted Gingerbread house. I hate it when people say these things are 'too pretty to eat'.. That's what we made it for!!3: Crunchy Cats! Tortillas cut out with cookie cutters, spread with sunflower oil and crisped in an oven.. Dip in a selection of goopy dips, and enjoy! (These felines are sooooo addicting!)4: Spooky Orange flavoured cupcakes!! Oops, I took the photo after I ate one. whoops.5: Witch's Broom PB Cookies with pretzel broomsticks. The salt and sweet flavours together are divine.6: The ice Queen and the Monkey.

This is Kalimov. I am now working in an education company called Shanghai Genius Education Technology Co. Ltd. that mainly deals with schools in China. I am also a maker, too. For several years, I've read about instructables on instructables.com and many of them were quite amazing, both in techniques or ideas. I think why not introduce them to kids in schools of China? I've asked the staff commitee about my idea and now I'm sharing this idea to you. Below is my thinking. My company wants to introduce some overseas instructables to schools in Shanghai or other cities in China. We also want to publish books of tutorial compilation. We are willing to translate English to Chinese. We like to share the backstories of a making and autobiography of you. What we need is your permission that you like to share or write out how much benefit you want (PM).  Summary: In the book and the app we are going to publish, there are introduction of instructables.com, your profile and tutorials, your backstories. We share the benefit from education market. All sales reports are going to be visible to everyone. Besides, I also collect some of my crafting these years and I have made a post here. https://www.instructables.com/id/Some-Pictures-of-Crafting-I-Made-These-Years/. Thanks to Mike Asarus, Liquid Wash Hand and many members in instructables.com that they keep inspiring DIYers all the time!

Hello,  My name is Konrad, some of you may know me some of you not, but today is the day when you can do something for me. How? I have just started my campaign on indiegogo. I would like to get tools to give you more instructables.  SO... I am asking you to check it out my campaign and maybe share it, maybe contribute... It will be your choice ;) Of course every contributor will get something... I have prepared some stickers design that you will get after contributing. Thank you in advance for sharing, contributing and reading my instructables! AND REMEMBER: YOU ARE AWESOME! And... here is the link: LINK

There is a new website for video sharing. It has a DIY / How-to catagory and has contests for videos uploaded.It is at http://www.ClamShare.com It is just starting and it looks like it might be easy to win the contests, since the traffic is kind of low right now.just a suggestion,abram

I have been to many sites, just trying to find one that carries, well, everything! I'll go to one, and it'll have a whole bunch of led's, but no resistors, or a whole bunch of switches but no led's. I end up spending a fortune on shipping by ordering parts for a project from 5 different sites. I would like to find a site that has all these things in one place. leds switches resistors capacitors transistors most other basic electronic stuff. Share your site!

About a month ago, I made an instructable on 9 Unusual Tool Storage Methods for Your Workshop which I think many people liked. I've decided to make a part-2 for this instructable, And I was wondering if anyone has an Unusual, Creative, Weird, Or Awesome tool holder of their own in their workshop... Share your pictures down below, And I might put them in the Instructable! I will credit you, And link back to your Instructables account in the Instructable :)

Share your DIY electronic creations!

Can I share an unpublished Instructable? It is based on the work of a third-party who is not an Instructable member and I want to share it with him to confirm everything is correct before I publish it.

I'm curious... Please share any and all custom airsoft guns that you guys/girls have built.

I was wondering if it was illegal to share broadband internet with your neighbors? This could be wired or wireless. With neighbors you know or dont know. Please, if you can, site some legal documents.Thank you, danfolkes

Because it's hard to beat the cuteness of really sleepy pets...    

Have you been buried by the American snowpocalypse? (Or is it snowmageddon?) We Brits thought we had it tough recently, but thirty-eight inches?  That's almost a metre! There are quite a few pictures (more pictures) and stories on the BBC, even another Washington snowball fight (no guns, this time). What about iblers, though?  Can you get to your workshops?

Hi The url to update status on twitter is wrong.

I have a printer hooked up to a computer running the latest Ubuntu version. This computer is wired to a Belkin Wireless router. If I connect a Windows Vista laptop directly to the Belkin router I could "see" it on the Ubuntu machine as part of the network but, I can not see the other computers on my home network that connect wirelessly. Any ideas? Thank you very much in advance!

Im converting an old printer (25 pin) switchbox into a switchbox that will be used for my monitor, speakers, keyboard, mouse and two computers. The problem is that the monitor has 15 pins, the speaker has 3 pins, and the two usb ports have 4 pins each meaning that I would need 26 pins rather that 25. I could just solder the left and right speaker pins together and make those two 1 pin, but i would rather not have to do that. My question is can two usb ports share a ground pin, meaning that it would only need 7 pins rather than 8.

A while back I was doing an electronics project and needed some components. I found that you can get free samples of components from some companys if you ask nicely. There are some good instructables on that that I will link below. I am now trying to experiment with different metals and am trying to find some websites that will give out free samples. But please put all the good websites for samples here so that anyone can find them if they have a project they want to do. The website I have found so far but I have not ordered from them yet: http://www.garrisonminerals.com/ Some of the instuctables i found: https://www.instructables.com/id/How-To-Get-FREE-Electronic-parts/ https://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-Get-Free-Electronic-Samples/

Got any interesting experiences you'd like to share? Scary? Happy? You get my point, right? Kind of like these:https://www.instructables.com/forum/Crazy-things-youve-done/https://www.instructables.com/forum/Driving-Stories/https://www.instructables.com/forum/Ever-saved-a-guys-life/Here's a scary experience I've had:. Some friends and I were bored so we took a walk to the fire station. We brought along some markers and cardboard and decided to kill time with some harmless Hijinks. We held up signs that said "Free Lemonade" with an arrow pointing in a random direction. People honked their car's horn or waved, it was all good and fun (We were in fifth grade BTW). About fifteen minutes in I hear screeching and my friend yells "RUN!". Not knowing what was happening, I look behind me and see a huge cloud of white smoke. We ditched the signs and booked it out of there. For a few seconds I didn't know what we were running from, but I could tell by the look on my friend's face it was bad. When I asked him later, he said that the guy driving the car looked pissed. He said the smoke was from the car pulling a hard U turn and accelerating towards us. We knew the car was chasing us so we ran into the bushes by the driveway of a cop's house. We heard a car coming up the driveway a few feet from us, and got really freaked out. We saw that it (thankfully) was the cop's patroll car. We ran up to him and told him about the car. He said he saw the smoke and called it in on the radio.

I have taken some pretty darn good pictures over the years, and I would like to share them with the Instructables community. I was thinking about posting a slide-show instructable, but since it isn't technically a project, i thought it would be the wrong way. Should I just post a forum topic?

My pc's home for the holidays but its on my schools domain which I think may be the reason I can not share my wireless for my xbox on my home network. If anyones got an idea that doesn't involve removing myself from the domain.

The four men behind the (in)famous file-sharing website Pirate Bay have been jailed for a year, and ordered to pay $4,500,000 damages to a selection of big media publishing companies.One of the four, Peter Sunde, refused to pay what he called a "bizarre" fine; ""We can't pay and we wouldn't pay. Even if I had the money I would rather burn everything I owned, and I wouldn't even give them the ashes."Despite the ruling, The Pirate Bay website is still up and running - it seems that, whilst the activities of the website have been declared illegal, the website itself is not, presumably because none of the shared files are hosted by TPB themselves.Speaking to the BBC, the chairman of industry body the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI) John Kennedy said the verdict sent out a clear message."These guys weren't making a principled stand, they were out to line their own pockets. There was nothing meritorious about their behaviour, it was reprehensible."The Pirate Bay did immense harm and the damages awarded doesn't even get close to compensation, but we never claimed it did."There has been a perception that piracy is OK and that the music industry should just have to accept it. This verdict will change that," he said.BBC StoryBBC Business analysis of TPB's operationsIFPI press releasePirate Bay's press conference

Has someone already made a way to embed recent posts from the rss with thumbnail images?I can make one of my own at http://p3k.org/rss/I would like to promote instructables to my students, and embed the recent submissions in the class page, so they will be inspired to make stuff!

Anybody have any cool PSP backgrounds they've made or want to share? Here's one of mine (It's one for gmod):

Using a cheap USB dongle and an antenna everyone can listen to broadcasts.This includes HAM radio, VHF, UHF, DAB, data servives, satellite communications and even the ISS.Pagers can be listed too if you still find someone using them but getting the latest weather might be nice as well.What are you listening to, what data do you decode?What is you best story in regards to your SDR experience?Prefered programs?

Hi, We were working on some nice Arduino projects and were struck by the fact that we couldn't find a nice possibility to let our projects send short messages to our Macs or iPhones. Since we had an iSticky Server for these kind of messages, we built an extension for notes up to 150 characters. Because we are very happy with this possibility, we thought the world might be as well... So today we are going beta with this service. Please try it out, give us comments or tips for improvement and let those messages be pushed to your devices! To signup as a developer and get a free developer token, visit https://account.isticky.net/token/request.html To download the library, visit http://www.isticky.net/arduino/isticky.zip Kind regards, The iSticky team

The network is two PCs and a Mac sharing the same broadband modem.

I would like to share a preview of a Draft that I am working on, but can't find a way to do that anymore.

There are few instructables about residential space dividers.  These might permit folks to live more comfortably and economically. They could be temporary as well as permanent . Could they rolll up to the ceiling ? Could they be flat against a permanent  wall until needed ? How important is acustic l privacy ?  Beauty ?  Fire resistance and safety ? If there are people who have thought about these issues or who have solved a space sharing problem, with some device or other, please post them. They are of no immediate concern to me or mine, but who knows in the future ?

Well, this forum is to "share your blog post with the community." I don't see that happening here tons, so here is my blog, and it's three posts so far. I haven't worked on it in a while, but I plan to. Topics blagged about are science, the world, philosophy, music, and interesting things. There is some strong language. http://ruralnerdofthought.blogspot.com/2012/01/greetings-to-readers-and-friends.html
