    Thats an excellent tutorial! Thats the kind of stuff we could collect in the DIY section of http://www.xsimulator.net/category/diy-tutorials/
    I think its a good idea to have the most important threads, tutorials and articles separated from the forum to give user easier access to them.

    If its ok i publish your article there and link to the original source here, so new user have a place where they can find it very easy and we also able to discuss it in the forum additionally.
    Of course you are free to publish the article at DIY tutorials by yourself.
