Best Tutorial for a Complete Newbie?
Hi! I am brand new to Daz, 3d artwork, rendering, and everything else CG. Needless to say, I am totally overwhelmed!
Would people mind recommending their favorite tutorials for using Daz that are suitable for someone who is completely new to all of this? Ideally, I'd love to find a series of tutorials that will walk me through the basics of using Daz, but ANYTHING helpful would be greatly appreciated!
P.S. -- I was able to install Daz w/no problems. It's how to USE the thing that's driving me bonkers.

Welcome, Mike!
Have you seen the videos on the Daz YouTube channel? There is some good information there. Start with the Daz 101 series.
There is an interactive lesson capability in Daz Studio. You can download the lessons with the Daz Install Manager and then run them in Daz Studio. They will step you through actually doing things in Daz Studio. Give them a try. First install Interactive Lessons for Daz Studio 4.9+ and then search inside Daz Install Manager for "interactive" and for "tour". Some lessons are called Guided Tour and some are called Interactive Lesson. Be sure to download the free content that goes along with the lessons (for example, Day at the Beach Bundle goes with Day at the Beach Guided Tour for Daz Studio 4.8+.)
Have fun.
@mikedepalatis I did a series of videos for beginners (I was a training professional) and it goes very slow, everything is in print, and it's very easy to follow. It was done back in version 4.5, but it focuses on things you need to know from scratch. Enjoy! Here is the link to the first one, then you can just click to go to the channel.
