Good Tutorial??

I think a good tutorial for newbies include the following:

1) Be clear in your explanation:

• What is the target?
• Which tools are used?
• How to find the addresses needed to crack
• How to bypass these addresses, maybe in different ways

2) Pictures are good but it's not necessary to use them, just write down the code that is needed.

3) If this is true, rewrite your tut so you can follow your self.
How can a beginner follow your tut if you (a little independent cracker) can't follow?

4) If a part of your tut is so basic that you think anyone knows this:
Explain it because you're writing a tutorial for absolute beginners

Maybe i forgot something
Just my (a cracking newbe) opinion

ALWAYS re-read your tutorial like you had NEVER seen it before or knew anything about the program you are reversing and as if you know little about reversing in general. I don't mean you have to explain EVERYTHING, but you need to make sure that, in general, what you say is clear enough to be followed by many with lesser skills and many reading a 'foreign" language.

Then see if you can actually follow the tut, not knowing what YOU actually already know about the program and the tools. May writers forget that they are reading the tut with information that is ONLY inside their heads and might not really be clear to those who read the tut without that knowledge.
