So you\'ve come to learn Blender, eh? You\'ve made a great choice.
Blender is one of the most powerful 3D animation and 3D creation tools
out there, especially if you\'re short on cash. Learning how to use
Blender can be a daunting task, so **don\'t give up!** With the help of
this wikibook, you can become a Blender power user and put those Maya
folks to shame.

If you ever get stuck in a tutorial for some reason, there are a number
of places you can turn for help. The best way to get help is with an
Internet Relay Chat (IRC) client such as X-Chat.
Connect to **irc.freenode.net** and talk to blender users in the
following channels.

    <div>

    #blenderwiki

    ```
    #blender

    ```{=html}

    #blenderchat

    #blenderqa

    ```{=html}

    ```

-   ```{=html}
    <div>
    ```
    #gameblender

    ```{=html}
    </div>
    ```

If you can\'t get help there, click the \"discussion\" tab at the top of
the page that you\'re having trouble with, and explain your problem on
that page. Wait at least 24 hours for help.

If you\'re still not getting help, try asking for help in the
BlenderArtists.org forums.
