Possible Newbie Tutorials

I'm a complete newbie to this community as well as to GIMP, but it inspires me to look further into the whole... thing.
There are two tutorials I've stumbled upon after wanting to add some brushes someone here pimped (and that do not seem to have come up here or are at least not tagged "tutorials").
The first one has helped me already and seems pretty official: The GIMP Documentation. Cool thing is, you have several languages available - I struggled somehow since I didn't find the place to switch languages and was using the English guide for the French version first... and where names of features differ, it is annoying. there seems to be a huge range of problems and features covered, from starting out with GIMP (yay!) to more complex procedures.
The other tutorial is Katspace's Digital Art Notes which looks nifty and has a section dedicated to icon-making. I haven't really yet looked into it, to be honest, but before I loose a possibly helpful link I prefer to share it.

The icon tutorial on Katspace's Digital Art Notes looks interesting. I'll add it to [community profile] gimp_gate's (tutorial) link collection on delicious: http://delicious.com/gimpgate/tutorials.

Thanks for the tip! :)

Haha, I just realized that this is [personal profile] kerravonsen site which she recommended a few weeks ago here. Totally forgotten about it... Thanks for the reminder :)
