One tip I would give to newbies is to find a board that supports newbies... This one is really not the most appropriate forum (No offence intended Lens) but most people who post here are more or less professionals who do this for a living and don't have the time or patience to handle silly abc questions.
I have to agree with the big boys though, sometimes it feels like the newbs just want everything handed to them and they aren't willing to work for it like the rest of us.... That is something that constantly pisses me off. They want instant results and want to be the next hun by next week. Oh and you got to love these questions...
"Tell me everywhere you submit"
"Send me so and so's ICQ so I can get them to give me partner status"
"tell me all your good sponsors"
Yadda, yadda, yadda!
