+====Recommended Overviews====
+Most of our fleet MOTDs now have an overview linked in them. Click on 'Incursion FC' or 'Incursion Overview' for an example overview.
 =====Setting Up an Overview=====
+To start building an overview enter the following text in to a chat box and press enter. <code>/open_overview_settings</code>This will open your overview settings window in station so you can start working on it while docked.
+{{ :guides:overviews:overviewsettings.png?nolink|}}
+Start by naming each tab you would like to have, we recommend having a Sansha Tab, Fleet, Logi, Contest, Beacons, Warp-Out, General.
+====Tab HTML====
+You can use the following attributes to affect the text, note that html only basic html colors work.
+<code><b> </b>  - makes the tab text bold.</code>
+<code><Color=Red> </Color> - Changes the color of the tab text.</code>
+<code><u> </u> - Underlines the tab text.</code>
+====Setting Up Tabs====
+===Sansha + Neuts tabs===
+Now you need to un-dock - Do it in a cheap ship and sit in a safe.  Select your first tab your **sansha** tab.
+On the overview settings window, click tab presets and click type. At the bottom click the __Deselect All__ button. Manually add the "Mission NPC" and "Pirate NPC." Also select all all of the player ships.
+On the states tab click the "Show by default" option for all states except for "Pilot is in your fleet" option and it should be set to "Filter Out" - This will cause your Sansha tab to show, Sansha rats + neutral ships.
+===Fleet and Logi tabs===
+The fleet tab under types and states should have:
+  * All Pilot Ships
+  * Filter out all states but pilot is in your fleet. This should be set to "always show."
+The Logi tab under types and states should have:
+  * Logistics cruisers/Frigates
+  * Filter out all states but pilot is in your fleet. This should be set to "always show."
+====Other====
+===Warp Out===
+  * Sun, Planets, Stations (states)
+===Beacons===
+  * Beacons (states)
+===Contest===
+  * Mission NPC, Pirate NPC (states)
+  * Leave pilot ships un-selected.
+===General===
+  * This should be left as the default CCP overview.
+<wrap em>Save each tab as something that is meaningful</wrap>
+This is the basis of your overview. If you wish to make your overview more advanced read the ship brackets section.
+=====Setting up Ship Brackets=====
+As stated above the ship brackets are the icons that float in space on certain objects. To set up ship brackets open your overview settings. Deselect all items and add the following:
+  * All Player Ships
+  * Sun
+  * Stargates
+  * Stations
+  * Planets
+  * Sansha ("Pirate NPC" and "Mission NPC")
+Save this as a new overview tab.
+Right click on each of the tabs and click "Load Preset to Brackets" and then the name of your new tab. Now right click on "Load Preset to Tab" and select each overview tab setting for each specific tab. Repeat this process and customize it as desired you can have as many bracket presets as you wish.
+This completes your overview.
