Gimp tut's

Hi does anyone know of any good noobie tutorials for gimp that focus on texturing. I’ve tried google but all the ones I’ve found tend to abbanden me at certain points. ie ‘add new layer’ ? “Oh you must meen this layer button here with the hundreds of sub menu’s well thats cleared that up, lol”
So yeh beeing a noob, depth would be appreciated.
Thanks
