1
Become familiar with HTML and CSS. When individuals are looking for a Neopets tutorial, it is usually for a shop, guild, gallery, user lookup or pet lookup layout. If you know nothing about HTML or CSS, you will not be able to create a useful tutorial. Neopets has its very own HTML Guide that you may use.

Know where to find pre-made graphics so that you can direct your readers to those sites in case they do not have graphics of their own. Neopets has their own image directory that can be found on the Pet Central page.

Practice CSS and HTML on your Neopets profiles in order to understand how it works and what happens when certain things are changed. Experiment with images, links, effects, tables, flash and more to make the most of your tutorial. The more knowledge you have, the more useful your tutorial will be. Take notes on what you are doing in order to change your Neopets' profiles, galleries, shops or guilds.

Become familiar with the Neopets website and the CSS and HTML codes that the site allows (some codes are blocked to protect its users). Before writing your tutorial, remember that you are writing for novices. Pretend that your audience has absolutely no idea what they're doing and they are relying entirely on you for guidance.

Write the tutorial step-by-step, being sure to leave nothing out. Even the smallest detail missing could confuse a novice, causing them to become frustrated and move on. Help them navigate their way through the Neopets site in order to find the area where the HTML and CSS should be entered. Explain that even the slightest mistake in an HTML or CSS code may result in the entire code malfunctioning.
