Hello!
This is about how to work Blender and the Basics of it all.
Blender is fairly simple to get moving around.

First you need Rigs, any will do.
What is a Rig Klev? A Rig is the model you move around.
[Example: Steve, a Diamond Pickaxe, a Apple.]

Then you need to open the rig in Blender.

While you are in Blender you will see the Rig and possibly all this stuff you may seems confusing to you around it.
This will show you how to work the basics of Looking around, moving objects, Resizing, etc.

Moving around and looking at views. opening and deleting. selecting, and rendering. - click to reveal
To look around: Hold down the middle scroll thing on the Mouse, and move the Mouse around.

To select: Right click the Object.

To get to Camera View: Press 0
To get out of Camera View: Press 0 again.
[The number keys to the right, not top.]

Other Views to get to look around quickly?: Yes Numbers 1-8 on Keyboard.
[The number keys to the right, not top.]

To zoom in and out?: Simple! Just scroll in and out.

What about Rendering?: There should be an option near the top left named "Render".

Deleteing something: Just press "Delete" Key on the Keyboard.
 
Opening something:  At the top left look at the option of "File" click it. Then "Open" and find the file on your computer.

Resizing, Rotating, Selectiong All, Deselecting All, Moving Camera, and Models.- click to reveal
To Resize: Press S, it also means Scale.

To Rotate: Press R.
[The first time its all easily bending, next ones more flexible.]

Selecting All: Press A
Deselecting All: Press A again.

Selecting a Sertant Square Area: Press B and drag the box how ever much of area you want to select.

To Move Camera: When you are in Camera Mode you will see dash looking things at edge of screen by the black part that the camera caused to show when you entered it. Right click it and just hold it down and simply move.

To Move a Model: This is very simple, yet hard for me to explain. With "Models" you have wierd looking things other than the Models at the end of their hands, fingers, feet, middle of legs, etc. Click them like you did the Camera moving and just hold down the Right Click and move it around, then as you see the Model will be moving.

Thank You!

I feel this could be presented better, as well as being explained better. As a self-taught Blender user, even to me some of this seems a little off; and I make stuff like this .n.
I'd recommend making a thumbnail, first of all; and maybe then a video, showing in greater detail how each action is carried out.
