Taking the first step to learning something new is always hard. And that's
why SoniqueX was created. Using the resources that have been made available
through Sonique and its community base, we have gathered various tutorials and
tools to help you get on your way to becoming a skinning legend.
Have you created an MML or graphics tutorial? Do you want it
linked to or hosted on SX? Let us know!! Contact us at staff@soniquex.com. Be
sure to include the HTML file and graphics with a description of the tuturial,
or just the link if you already have hosting for it. We will review it to make
sure that the content is appropriate, and have it posted within 24 hours.
