Durpal Jungle Gym

As a newbie to Drupal, you know what would help me? Purpose.

What I mean is that learning Drupal is cool, but learning it so that I can actually do something with it is even cooler. What I want to know is could someone come up with a few different types of sites and specifications so us new people can build those?

For instance, instead of just installing everything and figuring out what works, someone says:
"hey, build a social site with these features"
or
"build a site for a small school that needs these features"
or
you get the drift.

Meetup Ideas: Drupal Core Patching and Drupal Install Fest

Two ideas for upcoming meetups we could host at Zivtech (1511 South St). Both would be bring your laptop hands on meetups.

Drupal Install Fest

People who would like to try Drupal for the first time could come and get help from Drupal developers on the basics of setting up LAMP on their laptops and installing Drupal. If we get more experienced people than beginners we could always split into a second meeting next door at the bar.

Help me with PHP issues in Drupal

I am trying to learn PHP, as well as build a Drupal site. It is going to be a resource site for women in crisis. This is still in the planning phase, but I do have the site up and Drupal has been installed. What I want to know is how I can edit the PHP for certain things without breaking the site, and what the best method would be for setting up the menus and layout. I am a bit of a beginner, but I do know how to code, and I know MySQL also. Please help if anyone is available.

I am completely lost!

I am a brand-newbie when it comes to drupal. I had someone to help me with my site but that didn't really work out, and now I am in need of someone to help me gain some important knowledge so that I can properly build my site. I really need help with the menus, and with figuring out how the nodes are figured out. Please help. My email is motherprayer@gmail.com.

I do have some knowledge of drupal, but not enough. I'm a pretty quick study, but the tutorials only seem to offer half an explanation. I need a real person to explain this to me. Thanks in advance for your help.
