If it's that great of an idea and you MUST do it, then you need to learn what it takes to do it if you're that driven. Keep trying. And, if you feel your work might be ruined if you don't do what you have in mind, save it until you can.

Pretty much, either way it's not the path of least resistance, let alone success.

When I edit it never comes out like I imagine, but I usually like the result anyway.

It's really starting to get annoying... >_>
What do you do when this happens to you?
I stop.

Part of being an editor is just knowing when something isn't working out and you need to stop.

I tend to trash it then not do anything for the longest time. Then come up with something else, try it, phail again, or not be satisfied. I try to finish it though, since I'm bad at finishing things.

things like that happen ?

just take more time to finish it, learn new things, go through tutorials ask ppl wich have done something similar, google... there are lotsa things to do. Some Ideas just take longer to realize than others.

In terms of not working out = Bad Idea or not working out = Bad Skillz ?
if seconds, I don't think you should give up because you don't know yet how its working. Time and work surely can pull it off (was this correct english ?).
