I've purchased several tutorials myself however I have only opened maybe two or three of them and onlly looked quickly. I really should take the time to read them. Anyhow, being a tutorial writer I would like to suggest that if you are unhappy at all with the writing detail, the photos, they layout or anything to do with the tutorial, that you conact the writer and give your suggestions.

I agree, you pay for what you need to know you don't want to have to bother the writer to ask more questions. But if the instructions aren't there then you're an unhappy customer and that's not a good thing.

As a writer I personally would like to know if anyone is unhappy in any way or has suggestions, as I personally would take any critique into consideration and would most likely make changes to that tutorial and then resend an updated copy to the person who is unhappy.

A few of my tutorials I wrote quite a few years ago and am actually in the process of rewriting them, retaking photos and adding videos to them. One only gets better with practice and after having done a few of them, I go back and read my old ones and cringe a bit. I doubt they'll ever be perfect for everyone but then I'm not a professional technical writer. I do try to write while keeping in mind that a lot of my tutorial customers are not english or only know a little english, and so I keep the instructions simple and not too wordy so that they can at least somewhat understand the instructions or at least be able to google translate and still get the gist of what I'm saying.

Bottom line though, if you are unhappy in any way, I suggest that you let it be known to the tutorial writer, in hopes that they can either make changes to their tutorial or learn something important for their next tutorial.

I have not had one single complaint out of the thousands of people who have purchased my tutorials. So therefore as a writer I'm assuming everyone is happy and I've done a good job. Somehow I doubt that is the case, so PLEASE, in my case, if you are unhappy in anyway, let me know! I won't get in a huff. I will learn from it and make the appropriate changes if possible.
