Welcome!

And I couldn't agree more with jbgibson, I did exactly what he says, for a while I experimented on my own with more than a few tutorials you can find in the tutorials section of the forum, depending of what I needed, and when I had a "serious" project to work on, I created WIP thread to get feedback, and is helping me a lot, to learn and to improve my map. This community is incredible, by far the nicest and most helpful one I've ever been part of.
