How to Make a Game - Tutorial

I've never been very good at these type of posts, so here goes nothing.
I've decided to re-adopt my idea for creating a 'game making tutorial'. No doubt there have been hundreds of these already, but now that I've got the knack of creating them, I think I'll continue on.

The tutorials (in my opinion) are easy enough to follow, and don't have any known bugs (not that there's much to cause them, anyway). All you have to do is click the talking sprite to go to the next step.

They will probably be of no use to experienced Scratch users, as I am planning on using them to introduce people to Scratch. If anything doesn't make sense, please tell me. :3

This gallery will include them all: http://scratch.mit.edu/galleries/view/47885
At the moment it only has the first one. But it contains the scripts for all the others, so as soon as I think of a few more speech bubbles I'll upload the next steps.

Any feedback would be appreciated. Also, if you have any good (but simple) tips that you think might be useful to a beginner I would greatly appreciate the help.

Scratch 4 Second Life. http://web.mit.edu/~eric_r/Public/S4SL/
It's a version of Scratch that lets you make things on Second Life (an online role playing-like game).
