Will their be a new group of people who will be able to post there? or will it just be anyone who sends in a tutorial that some admins think is decent?

I have to set it up so only certain people can initially post there, but any user can reply to that initial post. Whether I can do this or not, I don't know.

Home to our growing tutorials section. Will also be used to house our new tutorials section for our new website."
New website? So
http://devnetwork.net is finally going to stop redirecting to
http://forums.devnetwork.net?

.
and I think there should be an option in PHPBB Admin panel that allows members to reply but not start a new topic - and only members in a certain group will be able to start new topics. I'll do some research - I know this can be done on IPB.

I downloaded and installed phpbb on my local server. Here's how to do it:
From the Administration Panel, Under Forums Admin, click Permissions. Select the Tutorials forum and click Look up Forum. Then click Advanced Mode. There, you can adjust who can do what.
Hope that helps,

edit: Suggestion for tutorial. It might be a good idea to post the tutorial for the random avatar script that all *ahem* 3 of us are using

It's kind of a moot point now since we don't allow offsite avatars. The basic jist of it was:
- Set your avatar URL in phpBB to a PHP file
- In that PHP file, have PHP pick a random image
- Output image headers then the image data
- Presto! You've got a random avatar
