Particle Editor Tutorials?

I have been looking and looking, but I haven't had any success.

I have been messing around in it to see what does what, but there are things that I want to do and be able to recreate without playing a guessing game again.

Things like make geometry always there (to be able to put a jet-pack mesh in an effect, so it appears and add-on mesh jetpack doesn't disappear), faster explosions, and even simple stuff like what everything means in the editor.

I really want to get crackin' on making my effects unique, so any help is awesome.

Hex the jetpack addon to the mesh, tutorial here. Effects are a pretty bad way to do this, I must say. Just hex the jetpack's MODL chunk the same way you would a cape.

Thanks for the Jet-pack thing, but my questions about the editor still stand.
