Don't hesitate to ask questions. You're correct that a lot of questions on this list are about in-depth, nitty-gritty stuff, but don't let that deter you. Every one of us started with zero knowledge, and I'd wager relatively few took formal instruction. So everyone was in your shoes at some point, and the majority of us would be happy to assist with whatever sort of guidance you need about Fusebox.
Like any technical community, there are certain best practices for asking questions. See if Google can help. Provide complete info (particularly for "why doesn't X work" type questions). Take the time to think through what you're asking and phrase it clearly and concisely. Etcetera.
Follow those and you'll almost always get responses, but do give it at least a day. Often answers will show up in a few minutes, but no one I know is paid to answer mailing list questions, so pretty much everything else is higher priority. Which isn't to say it won't happen, just that it might not happen immediately.
Yes, exactly. I feel awkward asking about things here cause everyone seems to be doing this for a while....and the answers kind of imply that you should have know that...but the thing is I figure that was the case but I wasn't sure. I hate to assume things and then something doesn't work and the reason it doesn't work is because your assumptions was wrong...lol That is why I was hoping there would be a class where you can go through everything and ask questions without feeling out of place.
This is an elusive problem for which I've already instituted a workaround, so it's not terribly urgent, but quite vexing nevertheless... I have a FB5.5 app...

So I take it from the silence that there isn't any place to learn Fusebox. Everyone for themselves kind of deal, not sure why it is so popular then. I like the...
I'm not familiar with formal training venues, with that said - I think you found a good resource here. This group, the documentation, and the forums have been...
Fusebox is a simple, easy to use framework that works very good. Thats why it is so popular. The nuts and bolts are rather easy to understand. You shouldn't...
Aw but when you are looking for a job, the question always comes up did you take a class or how did you learn to use fusebox. If you take a class then that...

Expanding on what Barney says, it is possible to "help yourself" as well as waiting for answers from other, more informed users. I highly, highly recommend...
