Thank you so much for your help, your suggestions are invaluable !
IMHO it is especially important for lightwave community to produce quality tutorial due to the simple fact that lightwave interface has a totally different setup then most programs, ie: no icons. Personally I'am so used to icons on all buttons that it is still very hard for me to figure things out after 2 weeks of playing with it. You would figure that it should be easier as each button specifically says what it is, but nop.
Another thing that I find incredibly frustrating is the lack of tutorials for current version of lightwave. The menu looks different on ver 8 then it does on other versions, this makes the older tutorials extremelly confusing. Not to mention the lack of tutorials for complete newbies ( by complete newbies I mean people like myself who aquired lightwave recently and need to be told exactly what to press to do things, and not just being told to do something.
Hope thisd makes sence. I have been downloading the tutorials from this site, they should help
BTW this site has been the most help to me from all of the popular 3D sites, keep up the excellent work guys !
