90% of addons/plugins still wirk for it (cause it's a fork of the current version & just basically a UI skin), & all blender tutorials I've found are adaptable to it's interface! I've learned more about blender in the past 4mon because of it, than I have in the past 2yrs combined!

I will defiantly look at it. I think more of my problem is I don't understand what 90 percent of the stuff means at times too! :D I tried bulding materials at one point and couldn't figure out what I was doing or not doing.
