Easy Trophies Courtesy of Sackboy

While waiting for Guild Wars 2, I thought I might as well run through my older PS3 games and get those easy trophies. Today, I started with Little Big Planet (LBP). Most of the trophies are pretty self-explanatory via their descriptions on your trophy collection on the XMB. Most trophy guides online will tell you exactly how to get them efficiently too. However, I notice that a lot of people are having problems with two particular trophies. I would like to clarify these two - Expert Creator (bronze) and Share (gold).

Little Big Planet's Misleadingly Difficult Trophies

Expert Creator (bronze)

• Firstly, there are more tutorials than just the ?s in your Popit so follow this checklist to make sure you do ALL tutorials.
• Go to your Moon and pick any crater to create a level.
• Once you're in Create mode, open your Popit and you will see an ? in the top row of your Popit menu. This ? is a tutorial so do this tutorial TO COMPLETION. 
• When the tutorial is finished, another ? will replace the completed ? in your Popit, Repeat the previous step and do this until an ? no longer appears in your Popit. That means you will have finished all the basic tutorials.
• It is very important to make sure that you FINISH each tutorial (you will receive a bucketload of new prize bubbles when you complete a tutorial) and DO NOT SKIP OR QUIT A TUTORIAL BEFORE IT IS COMPLETED. There is no way to track which tutorials are unfinished so you will have to redo all of them if you skip one.
• Next, go to your Goodies Bag and click on every item there. Some new items not covered in the ? tutorials will have tutorial videos. Watch all these videos TO COMPLETION. I cannot remember if there are any interactive tutorials in the Goodies Bag; I think they were mostly videos but in general, FINISH any tutorial.
• Now go to the Tools Bag at the bottom row of the Popit menu. when you open it up, you will see alot of new tools that weren't covered in the ? tutorials. Go to each tool with a green star on its corner and access it. You will be prompted to do the tutorial regarding that tool so accept. 
• It is highly recommended you do each tool in a methodical fashion so you don't miss any tutorials. Some tutorials are videos and some are interactive. Watch each video TO COMPLETION and FINISH each tutorial (you will receive more new prize bubles when you complete these tutorials too). Some tutorials explain several tools at the same time so when you click on those tools later, there will be no tutorial prompt. It is safe to ignore these tools but click on them to check just in case.
• Upon completing your last tutorial, you will unlock the Expert Creator (bronze) trophy while you're still being awarded prize bubbles in the last tutorial. Congratulations!

Share (gold)

• Expect to take at least 5 hours of non-stop grinding to unlock this trophy. A lot of people are very impatient when it comes to this trophy so I just indicating the time i took to get this trophy.
• You must be connected to the Little Big Planet servers to get this trophy.
• Go to Community -> Search -> Search text. Type "PS3T" without the "...". Doing this will show you all the levels that people have created since the game launch that caters to trophy grinding. These community levels can be empty instant wins to reduce grinding time for the Share trophy, or they can have a variety of features that help you unlock most of the other trophies.
• Once you've found a level you want to play, follow this checklist.
• Heart the level.
• Play the level TO COMPLETION (if you leave early it won't count towards your trophy progress).
• Once you're back in your pod, rate the level and tag the level with any description word (these are also requirements for the Share trophy).
• Some levels can be copied by other people. Tab right once and if the level can be copied, there will be a Copy option. Copy the level to your Moon, edit the name, description and icon if you want, then publish the level.
• You can have 20 levels published at any given time. Doing this early in your game lets people play your level and give you hearts (both of these are required for other trophies). Just wait and check your profile every time you play LBP to see if you've reached the required hearts and plays for those respective trophies. 
• Repeat the steps above 150 times for the Share trophy (you would have met the other requirements for this trophy along the way if you followed my checklist).
• If you want to gauge how many more community levels you need to complete for the trophy, go to your Hearted Levels and click More.Keep tabbing right until you reach the last page. By the time you have this trophy, you should have at least 5 full pages of hearted community levels. Each hearted community level should also have a golden sackboy head (denoting completion without dying) and a golden spade (denoting all prizes found) next to the heart. If a hearted level does not have a golden sackboy head, it has not been completed and DOES NOT COUNT TOWARDS YOUR TROPHY PROGRESS. Also, your hearts and plays on your own published levels DO NOT COUNT; you must play other people's published levels. Repeated completed plays on the SAME community level count as ONE completed play; each of the 150 completed plays for the trophy must be on UNIQUE levels.
