One of the most fantastic things about building a suite of tools around a community, instead of the other way around, is that users are always willing to pitch in and help out others with tutorials and forum assistance. It's our plan to build our applications with a very deep set of community tools, built around forums, wiki-documentation, chat, user-made tutorials and sharable workspaces.
Aviary super star Meowza has already begun paving the way with more than a dozen "photo-phixing" tutorials for other users of Phoenix. Got a specific question on how to make a technique in Phoenix? Ask and ye shall receive.

Equally applicable in Photoshop or the GIMP. These days, an editor is an editor, be it way expensive, free software, or an online service. Just starting out? The biggest question is, which is more likely to be conveniently available to you wherever you go and whatever you do? Either way around, there will be NO figuring out how to do that neat stuff without reading the manuals and doing the turorials, and ultimately the quality of your work depends a lot more on YOU than on your weapon of choice. :o)
