I am a newbie, with a capital "N",and find the tutorials pretty frustrating, to say the least. I want to learn this so bad, for no other reason than enjoyment of fooling around with animating in my retirement years to give me something to do.

  I believed the advertising that said this was all so easy, but I think that the tutorials, and the people that give them, all more or less assume that the people watching them have some kind of prior experience and leave certain steps/instructions out of the tutorials because of that assumption. To someone like me that needs specific instructions of "click this key-push that button,etc.", all these tutorials leave me wishing I hadn't spent the money.

  I saw in one of the posts where one of the administrators said that beginner type lessons might be possible in the future, but am real curious as to when that might be-2 months? 2 years? I'm not trying to be a smart alec or anything like that-it's just frustrating trying to figure out the gaps/missing instructions.  I was hoping this would turn out to be much easier than it has been so far.
