z!F Guide to Guides and Resources {update in first post}

[Purple Pimp Crusader]

❂ Welcome to the z!F unofficial Guide to Guides and Resources. The z!F is awash with excellent guides that sadly just aren't getting to the people who need them, due to a combination of low bumping rates, new threads, people forgetting links, and just plain being missed. I aim to make this thread the only guide in the z!F that needs to be bumped, and a repository of links to answer any problem our community is presented with.

❂ This thread is still a work in progress- if you happen to know of a thread or guide not linked here, please send me the URL and I'll add it to the appropriate section as soon as possible.

❂ Update: I'm thinking of changing up the banner sets, but I don't have the time/skill to do it myself. I'm willing to pay if anyone's willing to make me a new banner set. Color, theme, etc, are all up to you- they just have to say what the current banners say. PM me if you're interested.
