If you plan on using AHMI much I would at least give it a college try. Once you do it once it will be a lot easier in the future... and, if you do use AHMI a lot it's something you will really need to know how to do. If you get stuck, just include screenshots. Visual Studio does a great job on explaining errors. Just double click the error and it takes you right to it. Visual Studio is a really nice piece of software in my opinion.
