Remember the saying on IRC: "stupid is, as stupid does" - it works the other way around, too. Use the smart tools, you get smart as well.

Then perhaps that method isn't the best? I never spend a day doing anything, I do everything everyday, and I only consult tutorials when I look for a specific answer to a specific problem. I don't know if that would work for you but at least it is different from what you know *don't* work, so why not try it? -- underground experts united: http://user.it.uu.se/~embe8573
