(I paid my lifetime membership so why not check it out, right) other than that why do something on this site that is just more complicated that the other sites...

Sure I could spend some time hands on figuring it out... but how many people will... time has shown that less and less will and they have moved on.
No, the amount of tutorial material, does not prove its harder, it just shows that some people need more guidance than others. I didn't have any guides when I learned the system, and I had no trouble figuring out how to do things. In fact I've had emails from people telling me how easy it was to add photos to their portfolio and use them after the read the tutorial. Anyone can post photos to their portfolio in about 20 to 30 seconds. That is not a pain! But there is a learning curve to everything. Some will get it fast, others take longer.

Cheers,
