I think it would be best to direct people who are clueless about mods to the modthesims cc basics help page. I know it helped me tremendously the first time I added mods to the game since it was so straight forward and easy to read. They even have the framework set up for those people so they don't have to make the folders themselves.
I just think people can get overwhelmed when presented with SO much information that they have to read through when in fact it basically takes a couple of seconds to set it up :-) .
I have directed people to the CC Basics and it is informative. However, this falls under homework imo.
As for automated frameworks, I'm not fond of them and I'll tell you why. Before the the current one they used to have Delphy's Installer Helper Monkey. Now EA can and has change their code at any time. When they changed how CC was installed, anyone that had that automated framework was lost. They didn't know what the framework had installed and where. Lots of people messed up their games.
To me if you rely on this automation you'll be sorry in the long run. People need to know what and where things are being installed on their computers. And even with the new framework.zip setup, people are still getting it wrong. And that is why I previously posted here I will not help those that go that route. People are to always too quick to post the link for that and it does not always work for everyone. I've had to help someone fix their Mac because of it. Never again!
At least with my guides, I'm around to help you on a regular basis.
