D.learn, almost always there is an explanation what was done
wrong and

I wouldn't argue with that. Every time I've gone onto the learn
forum I've gotten very helpful answers. Though newcomers don't
always seem to find their way to learn ng for whatever variety of
reasons. Perhaps we should get a giant flashing button on the
homepage that says "Beginners click here!"? The button could then
take them around to all the right places, so they don't end up
like the poor OP.
I honestly don't know if I'm being serious or horribly sarcastic
at this point.;P
