Hello fellow silkroaders I'm here posting now for help after hours of failed spamming and failed searches (50 posts -_-).
What I've learned so far.
GPG----I got my gpg set up but I don't know how to send messages on it (using gpg on liberte)
BTC---- I seen many ways to get bitcoins but I still don't know which way is reliable and anonymous.
BTC#2--- I couldn't find ways to withdraw large amounts of Bitcoins.
Photos (possibly looking to be a vendor) --- Liberte is confusing as hell for a newbie like me. I can't seem to figure out how to get photos onto it ( I may have to just use windows 7 for all of this -_-)
I found some posts on photo hosting and stuff so I should be fine.
I got this error for the first time today as well. (using liberte while browsing only sr forum)
Oops! It was not possible to show this website
The website http://SRforumlink seems to be unavailable. The precise error was:
It could be temporarily switched off or moved to a new address. Don't forget to check that your income connection is working correctly.
could that be a man in the middle attack? I've done nothing yet but it's better to be safe than sorry.
I'm probably forgetting some stuff so I'll come back to this thread when I remember it.

Check reddit.com/r/silkroad's FAQ and guides for some useful info.
Often when browsing SR or the forums you'll get problems connecting, they're perfectly normal. Just keep trying to connect or try later.
What I've done to get bitcoins is transfer money using bitinstant.com to my mtgox.com account, and convert to bitcoins there. Apparently bitinstant is having major problems so bitfloor is now recommended.
