Typical beginner's questions. These things get answered quickly, often in the matter of a few minutes. The expert-level questions could take much longer to get answers on.

I'm pretty much a master at 2D and have little experience with 3D things. I can write scripts for things considerably well, but I do have limits. You'll get there. My statement in my signature is a very powerful guide to go by. Don't start off doing very advanced projects, do something at your level. By doing so, you gain experience the fastest and the easiest.
