Greg,

If you click on "Documentation"

And select "Getting Started"

you'll see: Quick Start, Sample Projects, Using Objects, Sample Scripts, Using Scripts and In Depth.

All those links include photos, text and video aimed to teach you.

Besides that, you have Dan Shafer Book which is a very good resource for learning.

You also have all the internet sites made by us to help xTalkers out there.

Revolution Media comes with templates that you can inspect.

RevOnline has dozens of users submiting projects easy to follow that will help anyone.

The Rev Forum is full of topics and people do answer.

This list is been in use since forever and people here help each other. No one is an island.

You have books, documentation, shots, sites, fora, lists, even chat in case you wanted to talk with us!!!!

What more do you want????

Revolution is not Multimedia Authoring Software like Flash! Revolution is a computer language that can also be used for multimedia, and for a lot of other things too. I for one, use it for networking apps. Others here use it for Information management and some for multimedia... Revolution is a complete computer language.

You said that Rev should enable "fairly non-technical user to do amazing things", I am pretty young here but I've seen many come as newbies and in very short time produce amazing stacks. Everytime I see that, it makes me smile...

I think you're bluring the line between very complex softwares like Flash and Rev.

I'll just repeat what I initially stated:

I think multimedia authoring software should be intuitive enough, and well documented enough to allow a fairly non-technical user to do amazing things
without constantly needing to ask assistance from local forum gurus.

The foundational educational material for learning Revolution from the
standpoint of a total non-programmer seems to be missing. That's the gist
of my own personal dilemma.

I do appreciate most of your replies, but having to go through this kind of verbal ordeal in order to learn a thing is precisely the reason I don't want to use a forum as a learning tool or depend upon the reactions of the local gurus. I want to learn alone. The resources which would allow me to do this from the ground up, using Transcript and Revolution, as a single tool,
do not exist.

Thank you,

Greg Smith
