How about a tutorial section for newbies?
As a newbie here at WF I am not finding it particularly user friendly for learning the basics of navigation. A tutorial page that described in specifics how to post, paste in text, figure out how to make and use threads and the apparently dozens of other options would be most useful. Those of us who write for money like the input of our peers, but we need a shorter learning curve.

The site may seem not userfriendly at first, but I assure you after a week here you will know how to use everything. And you will find that mentors are always willing to lend a helping hand.
If you have any specific questions right now I would be more than happy to help out.

the FAQ section has all the basics. On main page green bar click on FAQ, then scroll down and click on section of interest.

And contact a mentor if you need any help. Thats' why we're here.
The site has grown and grown over the years, so it's probably not as easy to find your way around as it used to be. But most of the techniques are logical once you get the hang of it.

Absolutely not, it would probably lead to people writing useless tutorials and then logging in on another name and say, "great tut, man!!!1"
