Do you know of any recent non-video tutorials. Personally I really don't find them very easy to follow. Pausing and trying to jump back and forward is thoroughly annoying. Besides laziness I'm not sure why people make video tutorials at all for anything technical but that might be just me. Text with screenshots is miles ahead. Again, IMHO. Making video tutorials, especially unrehearsed and unedited with tons of Uhhmm eh, and now then... <lost train of thought> are just lazy versus text + screenshots.

These ones were ok, but they were too slow in places and too fast in other places; I had a hard time learning much from them without continuously reverting back to the wiki to figure out what I really can or should do.
