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
