Go back to the Dashboards page\r\n2. Click the \"Home\" button at the top\r\n3. Find the small \"new\" button at the bottom\r\n4. Find the tiny green thing that isn't a button on the left (which is kind of explained by the getting started page, if you read it carefully enough)\r\n5. Add panel\r\n6. New graph\r\n7. Click the title (admittedly labeled \"click me\")\r\n8.
