Alexspeed: /* Restructure */

== Restructure ==
I have moved some things around and created some extra categories. First off I reverted the placeable tutorial to its original place in the list. It seems to me that creating an area should take precedence, and you don't need custom placeables in order to do that. I moved the level tutorial down into the more advanced section as that first list was meant to be very introductory. I also split up the other category into different sections.

:Actually when I moved the level tutorial I assumed it was the old one. I notice the new one is much more introductory, so maybe it could go at the beginning, but I'm still not sure if it isn't too steep a learning curve to start with that.

I think it could benfit the Layout of the Page if the Video tutorials could be somehow made seperated from the other external tutorials, but i am not sure if its necessary. opinions? --[[User:Alexspeed|Alexspeed]] 09:08, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
