I'm not quite sure what tutorials are out there anymore, but I was wondering, for beginer hexers especially, if there were any tutorials that you'd like to see out there, and anything you would like to learn how to do or get better at that you have not found a tutorial, or would like a more understandable tutorial for?
I was thinking about making a few simplistic tutorials for some basic hexing concepts/how-to's for the Petz 'R Us website and I figured I might as well see if there was anything in paticular you guys would like to see. :]

I'd really like a tutorial that is sort of like... Hexing For Dummies. LMAO Something pretty much that tells you what to do step by step. I learn best if I read or watch something that tells me what to do, not what I can do, if that makes sense. I tried finding videos like this, but I only managed to find a few. They were helpful but it didn't go into a lot. I mean, I now know how to color a pet and add balls... But I can't figure out how to change the shape of those balls. D: Bah, it's just really confusing to me. So a simple step by step tutorial would be really nice!

^ I'd be more than willing to do a How-To for PW. I've gotten pretty comfortable with PW and it might actually be kinda fun. Would help those people who don't know how to hex at all, etc.
And Buffy, if the petz guide doesn't have something that you're looking for by the end of the month, I could try something like that, and go more into debth about it in the PW how-to's? I think what it sounds like you're looking for is moving and adding addballz to make them look the way you want them, for example if you wanted to do wings, etc. or puffy cheeks. Is that sort of what you meant? Each addball, is always going to be a circle, ad they can be connected with straight lines, so after that, changing shapes of them is a matter of changing the ballz and lines in the pet. :]

I'll keep an eye out for those tutorials. And yeah, something like that would be nice, Jess! But yeah, that's exactly what I'd like to know. I tried it and the ball wouldn't attach. D: But... I don't know anything about the lines. The videos I watched didn't go into that. ._. And a lot of the tutorials I found were out of date. >.<

^ Yeah, the problem you're having is probably a lack of lines, etc. I'll start working on that, and hopefully it'll help you! But just a quick note, if you right click on a ball and select "add line" and then right click on the ball you'd like to connect it to and select "connect line", then a line will form between them. :] I made a list of easy-edit tutorials that I'd be capable of doing, so I'll start working away at those.

Wow Celia, your tutorial looks amazing & very complete! I'll have to do some easy edits maybe because I think you did the PW basics, etc really well. =]
Thank for posting the, Affinity! And nice to see you around, Celia! ;D

Thanks! I'm working on a basic addballz & lines tutorials right now, like adding them in PW and LNZPro, flipping them, what all the columns in LNZPro mean, etc.

I'm beginning to think I just don't have the patience for hexing. Even with Celia's tutorial (thanks, by the way!) it just seems too difficult and time consuming. I also hate that there isn't an undo button. D: I think I'll just stick to breeding. LOL

LOL Buffy!
It definitely does take patience, but so does breeding. I think it helps to have a background in looking at things coded and translating them visually.

Probably does help, and I don't have that. I don't even know much HTML. D: So I think I'm a lost cause when it comes to hexing. .___. LOL
