Getting started: MAGIX Photo Story

Sure wish I would of found this site before I purchased the program ... if I don't figure something out soon, my wife is going to club me over the head with a frying pan. You see, I told her I could do all these neat things with some old photos of her family. After simply one day it became apparent that the program was lacking in basic "how-to" stuff. This is not my first rodeo when it comes to mult-media software, so, like a dummy, I assumed that there would be a basic learning path ... if there is, it seems to be hidden in the help(less) file.  Oh, I'll figure it out sooner or later but Magix could make this a whole lot easier by simply assuming that I am a novice buying the program, and it is their wish to help me become a professional ... hell, write a book or something ... I would even buy that ... if it would help ... for now, think I'll stay out of the kitchen ...
