​How this site works

I think it's important you understand the strengths and limitations of this site. We're a journalistic and marketing website and aim to provide the best Articles, Guides, Tips, Tools and Fun Projects, but can't guarantee to be perfect, so do note you use the information at your own risk and we can't accept liability if things go wrong.

Any article published under the Crafty Studios banner does not constitute financial or medical advice, always do your own research on top to ensure it's right for your specific circumstances.

We rarely link to other websites, but when we do, we can't be responsible for their content.

Crafty Studios - Menu Usage

Crafty Buttons, and what they do!

You'll notice throughout the Crafty Studios web site, and within our publications we use icons to represent certain functions and links.

Please get to know the buttons and their function, for a greater understanding of how the site works.

The Article Database Icon
This little fella represents an article database.  When we create an article, it'll be placed within one of our article databases  for easy retrieval.  Each subject has such a database, and clicking on the Article Database icon within any given page will take you to all the articles pertaining to that particular subject.  So clicking on the Article Database Icon within the Business Matters page will take you to our business related article database, allowing you to view 'only' articles relating to that subject.

Neat eh!
The Pinterest Button
When we write about a subject,  sometimes we'll need to include images to illustrate a point.  These images will be stored on our Pinterest boards.

Each subject covered within Great News has its own Pinterest board, and clicking on the Pinterest button will take you there.

Click on the Pinterest button opposite now, and you'll be taken to our Pinterest boards.  This button will open the page within a new tab within your browser.
The Facebook Button
Every subject covered within Great News has a Facebook fan page and this icon will take you there.  The Facebook fan page it takes you too will open under another tab within your browser.

By way of an example;  Clicking the Facebook button on your left will take you to our Crafty Studios Facebook page.  Please check it out now, and remember to click 'Like' or use the buttons on the Facebook page to Follow or Share the page...
The Download Button

This icon is used to represent a downloadable item. Clicking on this icon should start your download.

The majority of our articles will be in the form of a downloadable PDF.   If the file for downloading is an executable file (typically any file with a 'exe' extension) then we'll place the file within a Self-Extracting Zip file.

Once you've downloaded a Self-Extracting Zip file, simply double-click on the file to extract its content to your computer.
It's our Internal Link icon
Throughout Crafty Studios, images are used as navigational links.  We also use this little blue icon to represent internal links throughout Crafty Studios.

When you see this little blue link icon, clicking it will take you to a related page or file within Crafty Studios.
