Hello People of Minecraft and PlanetMinecraft!
This is my very first attempt for a tutorial, so i chose a starters guide to how to get around PlanetMinecraft and how to get started on your very first time being here. People would normally say that a higher level person should do this kind of tutorial, but I just want to give it a shot.

DONT FORGET TO DIAMOND AND SUBSCRIBE!

Introduction:
Most of you guys don't really know what PlanetMinecraft is. It is a Minecraft fansite that allows players from all around the world to share their wonderful creations, stories, etc. It also has many activities that you can participate to earn rewards and prizes. It even has a leveling system so you can share anything and you get these "Diamonds" that show how much people like that certain project, Blog, etc.
Without further adoo, let's get started!

1. Main menu:
The picture below is the "Lobby" of PlanetMinecraft. It has many places that you can go:
Look here!
undefined
The picture in the spoiler is what you will see once you enter the site. normally to get started with PlanetMinecraft, you must Register and get your name for PMC.

2. Directories!
The directories are near the top of the sites "Lobby" page. Look in the spoiler below if you are lost:

It goes as follows:
- House Symbol is to get back to the Lobby
- Projects page will bring you to all the projects people have made
- Skins page will bring you to all the skins that have been made
- Texturepacks page will bring you to all of the created Texture/Resource Packs.
- Servers will show all of the servers people posted for Minecraft
- Mods page will show all the Modifications people have made to share with everyone
- Blogs page will show all the blogs people have made
- Banners page is a brand new addon to this site as it allows players to make banners for the 1.8 update.
- Contests (Pretty self explanatory)
- Members page will show all the members of PMC and if you are looking for someone and you know his/her name, you can search it and you'll be able to find who you are looking for.
- Forum page will bring you to their forums
- LiveTV page is a place where you can stream on this site
- Chat page is the PMC chatroom where people can hang out and talk about general stuff, it has many rooms you can go to and it has the best staff out there!
-Rules (Self Explanatory)

Okay since we have all the basics done, we can now get you started on your account. Make sure you are registered for PMC and be sure you are logged in for these next steps.

At the top-Right corner of the site, you can see a small box containing your status (Level, XP needed, Class, etc.)
This is the box.
undefined

Up there you should see Your PMC Name, click that and it'll bring you to the page like the one in the spoiler (Just without all my stuff.. It'll be empty). This page is your projects tab, which contains all your uploads and such that you made. it has some unique features like on the top left corner, it shows my name and below that name are some things that give more info on your account: Total Experience, how many submissions you made, etc.

Now back to the box on the Top-Right hand corner, click on "Account" and it should bring you to a page like the spoiler below:
The account page.
undefined

As we know, it does show some of the stuff seen on the last page, but this ones a bit unique to its awesome design and organization. There are 4 blue buttons named, Edit Profile, My Rank, Change Avatar and Change Class. Click on "Edit Profile" and it should bring you to our next page.
Yay our next page!
undefined

This is where we do the most of our work on getting your account setup properly. It goes as follows:
The top where you see my Avatar (My picture) *You can change this to anything as long as its appropriate*
My Class <<< This is what gives PMC a good system is by giving you classes like an RPG style server.
My Minecraft Name <<<*This is where you put your name to pop up in the PMC chat if you bought the game*
The PMC Server Whitelist! (Yes they have a server!)
About me *NOTE* This you can leave alone as it is not required for you to fill it out, but if you want to share some things about yourself, go ahead. 

You also can notice on the Top-Left corner is the Private Messages (PM) Section. Thats like you can send Messages to other players. You can check out your latest PM's, the archived ones, and the ones you put into the trash.

On the middle-Left of the page, you will see a "General Account" Section. That is like all the basic stuff that you can do with your account as settings can go.

As we go to the bottom of our Account page, we can see a few blank slots you can fill in as long as you have an account for that particular site.
Bottom of the page.
undefined
For example, you have a youtube account and you want people to know you have one by looking at your PMC account, Maybe a steam account etc. You can fill these out but all is not required to be filled.

This is all the tutorial that I can think of. I hope this tutorial helps most of you (or maybe some).

The first thing I got when I clicked on this was "I wonder what the guy whose project is in the pop reel in the image is doing right now"
