How to share your custom candidates

You may or may not be aware but Stardock has provided a means for us to easily share our custom candidates.  It's pretty easy to do to.

• Fire up TPM
  • You must have 1.1 to take a snapshot and 1.5 to have the *.candidate format.  You HAVE at least 1.5, right?  (If not head to Impulse!)
• Create you candidate
  • Customize the stats
  • Customize the bobblehead
• Take the picture
  • Click on Customize Bobblehead from the edit screen
  • Click the camera in the lower right
  • Position the box
  • Click the camera again
  • Name the image
• Go to https://www.wincustomize.com/upload2.aspx?libid=74
  • Fill in the form.
    • The sytem will size down your canidates image . .so go bigger rather than smaller
      • The snapshot is located DRIVE\Documents and Settings\YourUserName\Documents\My Games\PolMachine2008\Snapshots
    • It says you can upload zips but you can upload the *.candidate file jsut as well and it's easier to install for the downloader
      • Your candidate file is stored in DRIVE\Documents and Settings\YourUserName\Documents\My Games\PolMachine2008\Candidates\Packages
    • Fill in the description
      • Give some history.  Give some stats.  Give some story.

• Wait for the submission to go through moderation.
  • Testingto make sure it works.

Cool?  Very Cool!
