Is the original course that Sean Kennedy mentions at the beginning of this one still available? I know it is 5 years old but I don't see any other course that covers the basics.
Hi Dana, yes, it is! I can't seem to locate the CG Cookie archives directly from their site at the moment, but over on my own blog I've got a post with everything you need for the course!

Hope that helps!
