    Keep at it, you'll get there. As far as the tutorial on Lynda.com,
    those are targeted towards a mass market of 'anybody who wants to
    make a website'. 

    For most people, for most generic 'look at my cute cat' pictures,
    40K is fine. For a jeweler attempting to let people get a good look
    at a ring, perhaps not so much. Don't worry, eventually your
    knowledge will reach a level of saturation where you'll hear a
    'click' and it'll suddenly start to make sense. In the meantime, keep
    playing. 

Cheers-
Brian
