Help with Sony Vegas

[duncdar2]

Hi, I am currently using Sony Vegas Pro9 and can't find any of the tutorial that are included with it. Also, whenever I place text overlays, the text actually takes piriority over the video clip (Which is on the bottom panel with the text, so I know that's not the problem.) THe text has the checkered backround, which my my experiance from pain.NET means that it should show the backround stuff and such. Also, if anyone would care to do a little tutorial on how to put image overlays like a "Shoop da Whoop". (Not my intentions to make a shoop video, but it might tell me how to do other stuff.)
