Export and Import, tutorial.

[3dz]

Hi,
       I made this for lunoob, and thought this might be a good tutorial for someone who needs help with importing and exporting.  I use a lot of pictures.  Like the old saying goes,"A picture is worth a thousand words." Well, heres 11,000 of them.
This tutorial is in HTML.
 I am still learning the Linux operating system, and package archiving.  So, if there is something wrong, please let me know.
From what I understand, this is how it goes.  Place the .tar.gz on your desktop and double click it.  Inside will be a folder, "Exporting and Importing".  Extract that folder to do directory of your choosing.  Open that folder and inside there will be a folder named "image" and a HTML file named, "exporting_importing", double click on the HTML file.  You should be seeing the tutorial.

Remember to keep all files in their prospective folders, or no worky. 

Here's the file:http://www.geocities.com/siteandsound2000/online_pics/LGU/exporting_and_importing.gz

Happy holidays!

Thanks, 3dz!  I just downloaded it.  I may not have time to go through it for a while, as I'm going on the road installing gymnasium floors, (just got the call this morning) and I don't have a laptop.   

I may be out of town for days or weeks.  But I'm thankful for the work - it beats living under a bridge.

I envy you, when I was a carpenter.  I loved to do hardwood floors. I miss that kind of work.

Let me know what you think of the tut when you get back.  Have fun!

 I think gymnasium floors these days are made of a hard (rubber-like) compound.
Sounds like a pretty cool and unique job to me. I miss the traveling which has been involved with every job I have had since I first began working at age 13. I have only, ever had one job in my life, which entailed going to, and being at the same exact place... aaaalllll daaaayyyyy llllooooonnnnnnggggg, 10 hours a day, six days a week... and it drove me absolutely insane.
 So, enjoy the work, and I hope it proves lucrative for you lunoob. We eagerly await your return

I just got a few minutes on the bosses laptop.  We're in teh middle of a 12,000 square foot maple gym floor installation, after which we'll jump directly into another 9,000 s.f. job, all real wood.   

Gotta love it.  Miss you all.  Look forward to time back at home (or a laptop.)

 Wow, I am impressed. Very rare to see real wood being used for gym floors in schools these days. Are these a sort of restoration project?? Or being done in schools which are listed as historical landmarks? Just curious.
 I bet there would be a huge call for this in churches as well? Those would make for some really nice jobs

You just can't beat the smell of real wood. 

[Paul LeBlanc]

 Yup... can't beat the way gym mats slide on wood either We used to have contests to see who could run (full speed) land on a mat and go the farthest
 The detentions were always well worth it

LOL! too funny.
