I do believe that once you have DIC++ due to submissions, you always have it because the views from the tutorials are what pays for DIC (through ads), so you get free DIC++ as a result.

I am confused does it count if I put a link in my forum signature, on a forum? I also have a cool signature that has the words </Dream.in.code> in it if that helps any XD.

If that is the case take a look at my bukkit forums signature. http://forums.bukkit.../ytry.90635973/

When we give away a DIC++, it is for a site you have created and invested in, not a plug on another forum or social networking site.

Hi, I have included a link from my technical blog http://www.davidcraddock.net . Please could it be reviewed for DIC++ membership.

This looks like only a small handful of entries. Your blog would have to be more established (ie., more quality entries) before we can approve it for DIC++.

Somewhat tangential to this thread, I notice I've got a "DIC++" badge, but no idea of when that happened or how to make use of any benefits that's supposed to bring. Anyone want to toss me a clue?

[macosxnerd101]

The Mentor badge comes with a DIC++ promotion as a way of saying thank you for all your hard work. For most usergroups, there are usergroup and usergroup w/DIC++ options on my end. So there are Expert and Expert w/DIC++, Contributor and Contributor w/DIC++, etc. Mentors, Admins, and Moderators don't have those options, nor do secondary groups like Forum Leaders, Swampies, etc.

It has 69 posts, how many more would you need?

Also it gets a lot of hits, 20 unique visitors per day on average.

I'm also not sure what you mean by 'quality entries'. There are a lot of posts, and most of them contain code or a tutorial. There are 32 approved comments, most of which express gratitude for the information posted.

I missed those next pages! After reviewing the rest of those, we can get you set up.

Does a blog on blogger count or do i have to host my own?

[macosxnerd101]

That counts!

Ok, when i have more 4 posts on it i will put a link

I have built a small site through Weebly (Planning on buying my own domain after 1st Anniversary(End of June).) and are coming up on our first anniversary. The site is for Video Game editing and Modding. Would this be OK?

[macosxnerd101]

Depends on the contents of the posts. Video game modding where the game provides an API is okay, but black-hat modding (ie., DLL injections) is not as we don't support it.
