Thank you for the warm welcome! I must admit, after doing a lot of research online, I'm really glad I made the decision to sign up for a full year of Guitar Tricks. Between the instructors, the community and the sheer depth of options/lessons on this site, I have never felt more motivated and more positive about my chances of actually learning this amazing instrument.
Even though I currently suffer with rudimentary open chords (let alone trying to change between them), your videos have truly inspired me to believe that practice will pay off at some point. It may take me longer than some, but I feel now, that I WILL eventually get there with the help of Guitar Tricks.

Thanks again, and I plan to be an active member in the forums...hopefully I don't annoy anyone with what will probably be rookie questions/concerns.
