I need tutorial suggestions:

Should I:
-Make another online tutorial (with pics & such)
-Make a powerpoint tutorial (although might be kinda difficult)
-Make a short tutorial quest (where its an actual game but you learn how to do things via cutscenes & such)
-Simply update my current tutorial
-Make no further tutorial at all

If you think i should make some sort of tutorial or additions to make existing one, what do you suggest i add? Some ideas of mine regarding a "Design Portion" of a tutorial:
1. How to Make a Beautiful Overworld
2. Puzzle Tips
3. Dungeon Design Tips
4. A Better (Perhaps more thorough) Explanation of Secondary Flags
5. Planning Your Quest
6. Other Design Tips

Hmm......I think picture tutorials will definitely help, and perhaps all of the flag explanations would benefit as well.

How to better plan a quest.
Extensive puzzle tips (like an explanation of what each tile does, thoroughly, and how it can be used in a puzzle. Or, even give an example. )
Dungeon Design tips.

Personally, I think that I'm pretty good at dungeon conceptualizing. But when I do it, it just never turns out right. I'm working on an 18 room castle that I started in July. It is still not completely bug free. I hate it!!! GRR!
