NCannie you'd be surprised how quickly you can pick up stuff here. Check out the tutorial section. Lots and lots of tutes and referals to more. Anytime you have questions, just post them here and you'll have your answer without waiting too long. Best to have a camera and post a picture of where you're stuck if that's the case. Help is never waited for long.
Welcome to the board - we're happy you're here. Welcome from Spring, Texas.
