I like these. They are popular game development sites.
http://www.gamedev.net/ - general info
http://nehe.gamedev.net/ - openGL tutorials
http://www.pygame.org/ - Pygame site : -)
Gamedev & NeHe have black and blue colors, with
a feeling of "cold" as in the cold of outer space. I
would love to make a space-station motif if I could.
Pyame.org on the other hand has a...

Sounds good to me. You should begin with Pliant+SDL,
and then adapt it for PliGame when its ready. What you should concentrate however most on is the actual structure of the tutorial. All we have discussed is a principle and a means but not a method. You understand?
The first thing you should try is converting my
Getting started tutorial into an interactive tutorial. We can the assess...

I think we should do away with it alltogether. I suck at making websites we need a new one. I like very much the talent at www.oswd.org. I would like some of you guys to hunt around that site (or other sites) and post the links here, so I can see them. If you've
done this sorta stuff before, you can post your links here too.
As for artwork, I don't have any skills for that either.
I could...

No, It should be the opposite. the tutorial should focus on programming in Pliant and PliGame, and it is the user manual that should convey and repeat some of the material from the Tutorials, but in a non-interactive format. That is we show through screenshots and diagrams what certain bits of code produce. One should be able to read the manual and learn even without installing PliGame or the...

If SMPEG has a C interface, then its fine. I have yet
to take a look at it myself. We only need to wrap
eneough of SDL and SMPEG to make the code
snipped (or something very close to it) to work.
Could you give me a code snippet of what a program
like I described above would look like in C? What are
the essential C functions for loading a clip, attaching
it to a surface and begin...

nevermind what i said early, pliant can own create interfaces to external C libraries, not C++.

Other then the basic requirements illustrated by Ken. I think the tutorial should convey and repeat some of the material from the User's Manual. I think it is important to include the following topics to create a complete and effective tutorial.
i) A basic introduction to Pliant and Pligame, and there respective purposes. (This should be breif and consise)
ii) Installation processes for...

Just some ideas I had ...
i) Change the red font to green so its easier on the eyes.
ii) Update the Installation section for Linux users and include the Installation for the Windows version.
iii) Remove the CVS method from the installation section.
iv) Different Pages for the Different Sections ...
v) Update the news section with Progress for Pligame or perhaps it is better to do...
