I think your mancandy rig link may be out of date. That is, it may still work, but it refers to an older version.

I'm a LightWave user also, and those rigs are great. On one of the later pages, someone has linked them again. If they are not there, let me know and I can e-mail them. These would be a great addition to the section.

You have to know pretty much everything about rigging, or at least the important stuff. There are plenty of free and paid tutorials on the net, just do a bit of searching.

I wonder if you would consider adding the Norman Rig for Blender 2.5 to the resources? You can find it here: http://ivogrigull.com/blog/?page_id=127
