New to Gaia? Unsure of how to do things? Click on the banner, and request to join the Newbie Supporting and Training Guild, where you can ask questions and get information with ease.
So far this guild is pretty awesome for new people getting help. There's also tons of forums to help them keep informed of any security or scams going around. I'm sad to say that I fell for one, but with the help of one of the mods I was able to get my Momo back.
blaugh There's also a particular forum which I love that's called '~= Anonymous Gift Giving Thread =~ '. You can choose to help someone and can ask for people to help you. Overall, this is a good place to ask for help on a few things whether your old or new.

We welcome all media, styles and experience levels - whether you work in clay or felt, make cute things to sell or expressive works of art, are a total noob or an experienced pro, there’s a place for you here.
One of the cutest arts and crafts guild there is.
4laugh I often go here whenever I'm taking an art course and find that they often give helpful suggestions.
eek Like dealing with wire art.
sweatdrop I don't know WHAT scars I would've gained if I didn't read here. So yeah, they're kinda of a hands on art, but theres lots of helpful links and tutorials here. Not to mention if you really want to sell things you can here.
wink They're still a new guild so maybe we can help each other out?
