yes baz i agree i dont care for the animated ones either. im better with mini tutorials mainly but animated just kill me over and make me quit faster...lol. no on the shift e thing, i rarely use my keyboard short cuts, well except the ctrl key when i need to go in a straight line. i have gotten so used to just using my mouse pad and changing is very hard to keep up with. i have not a clue what i am doing wrong, but somewhere along the lines im off. im thinking i may end up with my handle being seperate the spoon as i have to get this spoon done so i can add it to the rest of my kitchen.
