How to Fix a keyboard spill

You Will Need:

Soft cloth
Distilled water
Flat-head screwdriver
Cotton swabs
Patience
Digital camera (optional)
Rubbing alcohol (optional)



Step 1: 
Unplug the keyboard. For a wireless model, remove the batteries.

Step 2:
Hold the keyboard upside down over a sink or trash can and shake it vigorously to remove any excess liquid.

Step 3: 
Dampen a soft cloth with distilled water and wipe the surface.

Step 4: 
Remove the keys with a flat-head screwdriver.

Step 5: 
Wash the key sockets with a cotton swab and distilled water. Let them dry completely and then replace the keys.

Step 7:
Try typing again. If it still does not work correctly, clean it again, and hope for the best. Keyboards are among the most inexpensive peripherals to replace.

Step 6:
Type something on your cleaned keyboard. If it is not working properly, disassemble the entire keyboard by removing the screws and clean each component seperately. Wait until it’s dry and reassemble.

How to make a Custom skin in Minecraft

What you will need :
An idea for the skin that you want
Skin edit to make your custom skin



Step one :
Open Skin Edit. You’ll see a blank template and a preview of your character in-game on the bottom right screen.




Step two:
Start drawing and filling in the blanks. Don’t worry too much about making it perfect the first time. You can see in real time what your character will look like in that preview in the bottom right. Click on it to make the model stop running or turn it with your mouse to see how your character looks like from another angle.




Step three:
Once you are satisfied with your work, save the image anywhere on your computer. Navigate to the Minecraft Preferences page in your browser and upload the file of your new skin that you just saved onto your computer.
