Very much a Newb!!

I'm new to almost all things max. Anyway I'm lloking for some decent 3D sites besides this one that offer some good tutorials. Specifically one on how to do that explode shapes thing that you see on so many web designs. Any help is apreciated. :)

www.3dbuzz.com ---------This has free downloadable video tutorials of max, the basics, and modelling. Very nice, but they could shorten them.

www.the3dstudio.com --------Has some free models and tutorials of many kinds of topics.
