The Tutorial Thread!

I'm a budding photographer and I do not have a lot of equipment with me. In fact, I do not have much lights with me. I would like to know: what type of home lighting options would work the best for a standard SLR or Digicam?

Here is a good beginning resource. Videos on basic lighting. So if someone learns best from seeing it rather than reading.

Hey guys, I think it's pretty amazing how far this thread has come! Anyways, I am working full time and rarely have time to visit the forums these days. I'm not sure if it's possible, but maybe one of the Mods can start managing the thread? I've gotten several PMs about updating the list over the last year, and have never gotten around to making adjustments.
