Please search. Those questions are the most asked questions that noobs ask when they join. And 50 might be a bit too much for you atm. Start with 20, you'll soon run out of shapes....

O.K. to save you some hassle on this forum here is some advice:

1. Use the search function for templates, number of pins etc.
2. Tell us the country and area you are from in your profile so you can get specific regional advice.
3. Tell us what locks you are attempting to pick.
4. Use a spell checker, we all get lazy, but the better you articulate yourself, the more likely you are to get helpful responses.

sorry for the double post, but I said "...the better you articulate yourself..." I meant to say; "...the more articulate you are..."

-it is a bit silly to ask someone to be more articulate in a very inarticulate way

He's obviously just joined and not bothered to even read the forum, never mind search. Situations like this beg for a restriction from posting until the FAQ's have been viewed. Maybe the registration confirmation email should have a link to the FAQ's/rules etc.

Jeez! Sometimes it's like swatting flies.

bottom line, prozzack - take some time and just read the forums available to you; particularly the sticky threads. everyone here has devoted a good bit of time and effort to learn stuff and voluntarily post it - so seek and you shall find. don't seek, and you'll just annoy those who have already laid down the groundwork.

their contents go back a while, so you can get a good bit of information well before you'll have to ask anyone.

you'll find a link at the very top of the forum pages (underneath the title) that says "search" - have at it.

best of luck in your self-education.

Well put pretender.

Look at & read the FAQ's etc., then search using applicable keywords, i.e.:
'picks templates' returns 101 matches (click "search all terms")
'templates' alone returns 165 matches
'my picks' returns 2365 matches
You can also use AND, OR, NOT within the search criteria to make your search more definitive.
