come on Ravelry, get it together

2 hours searching on Ravelry and I am more confused than ever. All I want is to become a designer so I can sell my knit patterns. Should be simple eh? it is NOT. Here is a run down of my last 2 hours:

Me reading through the process on how to become a designer. Went to step one = failed. Re read the first step. Attempted step one again = failed. Went to FAQ and found more of nothing. Tried step one for the third time = failed. Began cursing at the computer screen, in comes hubby to help. Hubby asks if I've tried step one. Now I am cursing at hubby. Searching the site for more info - searching - searching - searching. Resorted to hubby reading instructions out loud in case I missed something. skipped step one and went to step two, you can't skip step one. AAAARGH. So I sent a message that was not very nice to the help people, pretty sure that will not help my case to be accepted as a designer.
