HOW TO WORK WITH TAPATALK FORUM


NATIONAL GRAPHICS TO USE IN THE FORUM TO MARK YOUR HOMETOWN LANGUAGE

The main language of the Forum is English/American but you can write reviews, interviews, articles and chat with your friends using your hometown language.

In these cases I suggest to begin your post with the icon of your Country flag so other users will easily see if that post could interest them or not.

There is an icon for a fight review, one for an interview and one for an article.


FIRST STEP

I suggest to create a folder called "IGL" or what ever you want to call it in your hard disk and save these following graphics in the language that you use.

I suggest to save them with a filename that you easily recognize them when it's time to upload them (For example "Review" - "Article Italian")

In this "IGL" folder you will save all the images that you want to add to your article
