Why, why, why, why!

Why arn't there any good tutorials on 2d for someone whose's an advanced beginner. I don't want newcomer crap, and then all that's left is advanced 3D stuff. My God All I want is a side-scrolling tutorial, tilemap one, and an animation one! Why! There hundreds of tutorials for other languages. I think soon i'll just give up and try C or something.
Why! Why can't I just be good at anything in my whole life.
I'm so madddddddddddd!!!!!!!!!!

All I want is to make a stupid green circle jump, just jump. In 2d!
Not 3D, not text 2D!

If anyone can help please say so, and if you want to flame find another topic okay?

Enhance your calm i'll help you.

In 2D it's kinda hard to show that effect unless you put a shadow under your character. The shadow must be a separate sprite so you can move the character independent of the shadow.

Lets break it down and talk about one thing at a time. Which do you want to learn about first? And don't forget to post some of your code/media.

This may not be of much help, but i'll give ya a Zero game i was working on, but left it because of some issues. It's not the best way of programing it, and it still has some bugs, plus it is just a 1 week program, it has mostly nothing. But, look into it. If there happens to appear a line near Zero, then thats was one of the issues of why i delayed the project, so ignore it. The images are ripped of a file, using values written in a .dat i made with another program i made, wich also does the allignment for the images, wich is also a .dat. Hope it helps ya. Anything more, i'll try on helping you.

I'll try all of these, I'll going to hold off on my game for now.
I'm trying to get Heroes of Might and Magic III: SOD working on my
XP. I'll try again tomorrow, just needed a break from it.
I'm glad everyone here is open about helping.
