and I have no idea what I am doing. I'm completely lost. Can someone point me to a "Find out how to start working in Blender and how to do stuff with it" link, or like a "Blender 101" tutorial. :) Thanks.

Start with an interface tutorial: [html](http://www.blender3d.org/cms/Blender_User_Interface.224.0.html) [video](http://www.blender3d.org/cms/Getting_started.400.0.html) Then check out stuff in the [links page](http://market.renderosity.com/~blender/list.html) (found in the forum header) have fun!

I had pretty good luck with this one: http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Blender_3D:_Noob_to_Pro There are a few things that don't work in version 2.37 (Like the Stucci shader - you'll know when you get there.) but generally it is a pretty clear intro to whats what with the interface and so on. Good luck!
