Man, you could have easily split this article into 3 - one per each way of doing it. It's hard to find readers for such long texts here on Steemit. Even I didn't finish it as ponding is not really my thing.
But I've tried to dig out some help/tutorial/community like posts into my submission this week and this one definitely is undervalued. Hope you get more attention now :)
