lybovnik, yeah, sucks that your first impression has been poorer than it could (and indeed should) be, but please persevere. RW is an amazing tool, and well worth taking the time to learn.

Meanwhile, watch the tutorial videos, even if you can't actively do some of the things it talks about without the tutorial content, and if you have any questions at all about how to do something, please throw a thread into the mix, we're a pretty friendly bunch and are all too happy to totally geek out about RW.

(Warning: geek overload may be accompanied by side effects such as: more information than you need; extraordinarily technical details; arguments about the "best approach" to solving a problem; and FLAME WARS1).

1: Flame Wars may or may not involve moderator action, but since I've never actually seen a full-blown one on these forums, it's hard to tell.
