<strong>I really like AlphaSnip. Is it OK to promote it?</strong><br />
Great! Feel free to share it with anyone you want!<br />
<br />
<strong>I have ideas to share about tweaking Snips. How do I go about it?</strong><br />
Even better! Email <a href="mailto:khanafi@alphasnip.com" target="_blank">khanafi@alphasnip.com</a> with an outline of your suggestions.<br />
<br />
<strong>Are you related to Alpha Software?</strong><br />
No, we are Alpha Anywhere developers not commercially linked to Alpha Software.</p>

<p><strong>What snips are allowed to be submitted?</strong><br />
Any kind. We welcome all snip&nbsp;submissions</p>

<p><strong>What should be included in uploaded Snips?</strong><br />
Submissions may contain a5w, a5cmp, HTML, CSS, Javascript, Xbasic, and everything needed to make a Snip work.</p>

<p><strong><a id="after-submit" name="after-submit"></a>What happens after a Snip has been submitted?</strong><br />
The&nbsp;Alphasnip Team will test each Snip in Alpha Web Application Server (WAS). Once vetted and approved by us, your component will appear on the Snip pages, where it can be downloaded for free by AlphaSnip members.<a href="#Legal-disclaimer">*</a> Read Legal Disclaimer info</p>

<p><strong>Can I resubmit tweaked Snips (with additional componentry by others)?</strong><br />
Yes, you can, AlphaSnip members are allowed to resubmit tweaked Snips which have been upgraded (from the initial submission)</p>

<p><strong>What the difference between components and Snips?</strong><br />
Think of the origin. Only AlphaSnip produces Snips, everyone else produces components. If you successfully submit a component to AlphaSnip, it&#39;s rebrand as a Snip when it&#39;s marketed for downloading</p>

<p><strong>What is portfolio feature?</strong><br />
It is an extra feature given to AlphaSnip members to create portfolios of projects in their profile.<br />

Anyone can see them, including clients from banks and companies who look for <a href="http://www.alphasoftware.com/" target="_blank">Alpha Software</a> programmers to build sophisticated web and mobile apps.</p>

<p><strong>How can I get the portfolio feature?</strong><br />
To get this feature, you need to be registered and upload a Snip <a href="http://alphasnip.com/snippets.a5w" target="_blank">here</a>. The Snip will be reviewed by the AlphaSnip Team. When approved you will be notified by email and the portfolio feature activated in your account.</p>

<p><strong>I have already submitted a Snip, where is my portfolio feature?</strong><br />
It takes 2-3 business days to review your Snip</p>

<p><strong>How do I add to my portfolio?</strong><br />
