scott, this would be great. one thing that's hard for me is to
know what topics would be most helpful for newbies. also, i am
eagerly waiting any tutorial submissions. it would be very helpful
to get any extra intros and tutorials.

just because all the  current tutorials are written by me, doesn't
mean i don't want any, just means there's been no submissions :]

anyways, if you've got something started or want any advice/info
as you write anything up, let me know and i'll be glad to help
create something useful.

pygame really has started to attract a lot of first-time python/game
programmers. there are certainly many problems specific to little 
games and animations that would be nice to have covered.

scott, thanks for the offer, i'll be looking forward to anything.
