How long ago did you submit them? I'm sure Dan has a queue because of the sheer volume he'd get a day... make sure your tutorials are complete and don't violate any of the rules P2L has in place.

i've just gone through the roughly 15 tutorials you submitted and this is the only one i've accepted:
http://poisonize.com...t=show_tut&id=2

And to be honest, i have no idea what you where thinking with your tutorials, none of them taught anything, and are VERY unreadable.

So i'll give you a few tips, and feel free to pm me, as there are alot more to give you...
  • Remove the syntax highlighting
  • Use a readable text colour
  • If you are going to use syntax highlighting, put the code in a white box or something simular for the text to be readable..
  • DONT write tutorials that are under 5 lines
  • DONT do tutorials that are "heres the function, it makes babies" - as that teaches the user nothing
A few design tips too:
  • Black on gray doesn't work
  • grey on black doesn't work
