FAQ

Q: Can I update a robots page after I have entered the robot?

A: Yes. In fact we want you to, and it get's promoted to the front page every time you do so. Just enter the robots page, click the "edit"-tab in the top of the Robot's page (when logged in), and update :)

 

Q: What if I'd like to show the continued progress in a Robot-project?

A: Make a blog-entry each time you have anything to say about your project or life in general. If you mark the blog posting to belong to a particular robot project that is already on air, the blog-entries will then show up on the Robots page.

 

Q: Does my robot have to be finished work to enter Let's Make Robots?

A: No way. As soon as you have put together 2 parts, just enter it as a "Robot project". Then others can comment and give feedback, and you can blog about it, and you can always just update the robots page with new code, images, video etc.

 

Q: My english is so bad, can I get spell-check?

A: Yes, try right-click in the input-areas, your browser is likely to have this already (or may offer you to install it)

 

Q: I want to upload a lot of pictures, it is such a difficult thing to do in your editor, make it easier?

A: Yes, there are may ways. An example is to install Google's Picasa. Use this to drag'n drop, manage and upload your (bulk) images with great ease and many features. When you want to insert one here on LMR, simply right click on the picture uploaded in Picasa (Flickr or whatever), copy the images address ("location" / "image URL"), click on the little tree-icon in the editors here on LMR, and paste the image-address - voila! You can also use the the "Personal files"-section that is provided on LMR (your profile), which can also be accessed from "the tree-icon".
