1. How to create a level

So, you want to create your own level. Good =). Lets get started then.
First start up the game and select the "level editor" option from the main menu.
You will now see the editor with an empty grid.

In the right side of the screen you will see all the different tiles that the games has.
Select one of them (for example the grass) and click somewhere in the grid. Now you can see that the tile you select appears on the grid.
Draw a simple level with atleast 1 key and Dotty positioned somewhere =).

Now press "s" button and type any name for your level.

Click on the exit button below the grid and selec "Select levelpack" option from the main menu.
Select "User Levels" option.
Click "Play" in the main menu

You will now see your new level in the selection with the name you just gave to it =).

Enjoy Creating your levels.

2. How to Create a level pack

So you have created some levels and would like to make them in to a level pack. Consider it done.
Ok so here's what to do. First open the folder where your Dotty Blinkeyes 2 is located.
Select "Media" folder.
Select "Levels" folder.
Create a new folder to the location and give it the name you want your level pack to be called.
Move the levels you want in the pack from the "User levels" folder to the new folder. And bang! you're done =)

3. How to share a level (pack)

The easiest way to share a level pack is to compress a level pack.
You can do it easily with any sort of a compressing sowtware for example "Winzip" or "winrar".
When you have compressed the pack you can share the pack as you wish with your friends or with the whole world via internet =P.

If your level pack is very good you can email it to me and i'll check it out and possibly host it in the pinetreegames.com site.
