How can I claim a bounty?

Hello there.

I have a pattern which somebody wants. How do I claim the bounty, considering that it takes long for a pattern to be moderated and approved?
How do I inform the person who looks for the pattern that I actually have it?
Please help.

Sincerely,
ghi

To claim a bounty, the pattern must be submitted for moderation first like any other. Once it has passed moderation and is available, you go to the bounty listing and click on the box that says "I answered" and paste the link of the moderated pattern in the reply box. Then it is up to the member who placed the bounty to set your answer to "best" so that you receive the coins.

Theres an I answered button on the bounty (its basically just reply to the post) where you can post with the link you have to the pattern once its been approved. A moderator will reward you the coins, if two people post the same pattern whomever posted it first will get the coins (at least thats how i understand it....im not a mod) :D I also think it can take some time for the coins to be awarded to you.

just clic on the grey button:I answered
insert the link- thats all what you should do,

the poster have to set your thread  as BEST ANSWER and its done
this works automatically,

after a week you can complain to the section moderator
