I'm currently learning how the coding works here (since there are quite a lot of code pieces that don't work here.) These are pretty good guides :)

Chapter 11: You have, by far, the most helpful tutorials I've seen around! Seriously, I've been reading coding tutorials these days and I still had questions left hanging even after I read those tuts! I think it's because you're not just showing one way to do something but that you're showing what happens if you do this and not that. I'm looking forward to your scrollbar tut as I'm having problems making the scrollbar transparent on top of a background image. I know it will take a long time before we even get to that tutorial but I'm hoping it's one of things you will address! Thank you and have a good day!
