It might be an easy read ... but at 34 pages it's a long read too.   I will look to pull out some of the headline and apply them as forum banners for a while.

There are - amazingly - sixty five graphics from the easy read on the top of the forum ... should change for each page you load offering a nugget of advice.  Some will be a little out of context ...
