I annotated a game. Its fairly verbal but it indicates (to myself) what was going on in my head. Not much in terms of 'calculation' and 'variations' because I didn't do any - it was a quick iTouch-based game for the most part with not much thinking as can be seen. However, I did find that going through the game and annotating it with some scribbles definitely allowed me to see some serious (perhaps class-101) flaws in my game!
For your entertainment (laugh away):
Game 8096328 <----- Anyone know how I can include this 'board' with annotations in the forum so you can easily see it?
(Please bare with me - this is all an education for me!).

Awesome! How did you do that? :-)
I went into your game to find the annotation number - revealed in the address bar of the internet browser. I went back to the forum post and typed:-
"Annotation 631"

You can go to your annotation and bring up the board. By clicking the PGN link your pgn is then available to copy and paste like this:-
You are now published and famous and Bob's your Uncle!

Try contacting some players here on RHP over 2000 and send them your games, some would be happy to give you there feedback. (Just don't ask me anymore because my playing ability sucks!)
Hi - I'm new to the forums and chess in general.
I am going to download some of my games and build some information about what openings get me into good/bad games, understand serious mistakes that cause me to lose games, or get into trouble. Try to analyze them, find weaknesses and strengths and patterns of my play so I can make improvements. One thing I' ...[text shortened]... here a method you follow? How do you verify that your analysis is sound?
