 +==== Sending a large file to us ====

 +If your file is very large:
 +  - Go to the [[http://www.rhino3d.com/upload|McNeel File Upload]] web page. 
 +  - Enter your information and use **<tech@mcneel.com>** as the recipient address at McNeel. Be verbose in your description of your problem.
 +
 +==== How to write a great bug report ====
 +We want to fix the problems you see, but first we have to reproduce the problem on our computers. Writing a great bug report helps us do that. Include as much detail as possible, even if it seems obvious to you. A great bug report includes:
 +
 +  - Each step you perform to reproduce the problem. When running commands, note whether you ran a command from the application, or typed a command. Be specific when describing the command you start.
 +  - What happened after each step.
 +  - What you wish happened instead. 
 +  - A model that demonstrates the problem.
 +  - A screenshot of the problem.
 +  - A description of your hardware and Rhino version: Run the **_SystemInfo** command and save or copy the information.  Paste or attach system info into the post or email. 
 +  - Does this problem happen with every model, or just a certain model?  If the problem is with just some models, we will need a copy of your model to duplicate the problem.
 +
 +Assume you are the //only// person having the problem.
