installation of help file in 2.6.12 - 64 bits

I am a newbie with the Gimp. I am desperately trying to learn how to use it. Are there any learners videos out there for beginners?
Thank you All

Hi,
Changing the installation destination file of gimp-help-2-2.6.0-fr-setup.exe makes it to install properly in

program files\GIMP 2\share\gimp\2.0\help
When launching 2.6.12 - 64 bits (installed with unstable installer), the local help file is recognised as installed. However when clicking on aide (help)-> aide you open the help windows with an error (as joined copy). translation seems to say :"error at the opening of  file : invalid argument"
Is there a way to change a setting to make it working
Thanks

Paul

If you search YouTube for GIMP tutorials you will find tons.

Although you might not want to change everything in the user interface around the way I did, you might still pick up a few useful things from my own "getting started" tutorial: http://pilobilus.net/gimp_tutorial.html

And don't miss this one: http://world.std.com/~mmcirvin/gimp_tutorial/

It the site is down (it was for me when I just looked), try this:
