i like the concept of making people 'come back and try it again' until they get it right. that way, when they go far away on vacations, they'll have had enough practice to not waste any photo opportunities with blurry grainy and boring photos

a very simple tutorial, while there is a truth in it, there are also some myths.
I stress that it is important to have some reference point in the scene. It helps avoiding the "flat" and "tiny" appearance of some landscapes.
A foreground or some kind of "path" to the background scenery can also be of use (a meadow in the foreground, a fence, a wall...).

Very related to the above is your statement of the wide angle lens. While it can be of great use and effectiveness (especially if you have a great foreground object) it is deceptive and the results usually look flat and boring.
You would need to view the results very big (essentially projected slides).
I think that the best results I get are with 35mm and 50mm lenses. Some cameras have very useful 40 or 45mm fixed lenses!

The usage of a wider lens is good if you couple if with cropping to a panoramic wide format though.

nice tutorial, simple as said before, but good. I wish I could afford some wide angle lens, maybe some day

You've done this very simple, something I think is a downside. Good start, but people need more information than this. There are many ways of processing and image, both on the camera, and on the computer....So, great start, but very simple.
