Dear posters in large community I read every day:
Saying "I googled and didn't have a lot of luck" is helpful, but not as helpful as ACTUALLY TRYING TO SEARCH FOR IT. In fact, most recent dear poster, had you put in the phrase in your post that started with the words "how to," plus the name of the activity about which you were posting, you would've got the page I linked in my reply, which I hope is very helpful to you.
I think people have learned to repeat "I looked, but I couldn't find it" without actually looking. Grar. [ETA: she clarified that she was looking for a more specific technique than the general one-- and someone else chimed in and she got her answer. yay!]
( *rings bell* Unclean! Unclean! TMI! TMI! )
