Hello. I have been searching the Internet for some tool to introduce my 10 years old son into the complicated world of programming simple things and I found scratch.mit.edu. This is an AWSOME idea. :-) I am not a programmer, so I hope to learn much myself as well… Is there a chance to find some detailed help somewhere explaining how the more complicated features work - they are still under construction, as I have seen already. Greetings to all Scratchers. :-)

Hello and good luck to both you and your son–I'm sure both of you will have an awesome time here as you learn. Everyone here is so helpful, and if you can't find a guide, then I'm sure you could ask one of the more talented programmers. I'm not that great at programming, and I barely know the basics
Once more, welcome to the community and I hope to see your future projects and games!
