Sending in your tutorials

The tutorials you see here are made with Wink. Wink is a very nice and intuitive tool and best of it: it's free! So if you want to support the project feel free to send in a tutorial. It would be nice if you compile your tutorial with this theme-pack containing the preloader, buttons and the progressbar in pfSense-style. Just extract the archive in your wink directory and select these files for your project.
