Hi, here's the preview video of the CS guide.
The guide is capable of turning a complete noob into a player better than 90% of the other players on the server. In a server of 20 or so players, that means you'll be the top 2 player with the best kill/death ratio. Most of the time, you'll be the best player on the server.
There have some big changes from 1.6 to Source. Don't worry, the guide covers CS:Source as well. The guide is continuously updated (free!)with new info and tactics depending on how the game changes.
Here are some reviews of the guide.

In case you're wondering how good they are,here's a clip from the team who did the CS guide.

Counter Strike Tips
Part II
3. Shotguns- Shotguns are close quarters weapons! Go up close to a wall. Fire. See how the shells spread apart into 8 bullets that fit the shape of a torso? Experience firing at the wall at different distances. (not in a real online game, of course!) You eventually see how close you need to be for the shotgun to be effective.

A: M3 Pump Action Shotgun: Best used when bunny hopping. Run up to them and bam! It’s pump action so choose your shots wisely.

B: XM1014: Fully automatic but each successive shot get less and less accurate because of the recoil. Just run up close and gun with bunny hopping of course.
4. SMG- The only SMG really worth talking about is the MP5.

A: MP5: Pretty much the most popular gun in all of Counterstirke. It is dirt cheap and has a high rate of fire. It is also pretty accurate even if you use LONG BURSTS (like 6 six shots), compared to the rifles (shorter bursts). It pretty weak against armored foes and in long range battles against rifles, you might be outgunned. Use in it close to medium distance combat settings.
5: Rifles

A: SG-552 Commando/Steyr AUG: Pretty much the same gun. They both pack quite a punch, but have tremendous recoil even with burst. My advice is to use the zoom and fire one shot burst very fast.

B: Ak47: The most common terrorist rifle in the game. A pretty much automatic headshot if you aim for the chest and shoot. Don’t count on its accuracy on automatic though. Four round bursts is where its at.

C:M4A1: The most common counter-terrorist rife in the game. Pretty accurate in long distances when used with 4 round bursts and packs quite a punch short and long distances. Relatively, easy to use, just duck, point, fire a burst. You be using this baby a lot.

CounterStrike Tips
CounterStrike Tips: An introduction
So you just started playing Counterstrike? With more than 200,000 players online at any given point in time, it remains one of the most popular first person shooter computer games. Let me guess. You’re probably getting "pwned." You swear you’re shooting directly at the person, yet it seems the bullets don’t even touch him. On the other hand, your opponents take you down in seconds with a finely placed headshot. Let me try to help.
Here are some Counterstrike Tips for the weapons used in the game:

1. Knife: Ahh, the knife. It has two different attacks, the primary attack (fast, but weak) and the secondary attack (slow, strong) So what should you use? In a knife fight, you want to deal the most damage as possible. Therefore you want to go for the UPPER BODY. For beginners, I recommend going at the upper body with the fast attack so you guarantee yourself a hit. As you get better go with the slow attack for even more damage. An addition tip: jumping toward you opponent with the knife and aiming for the head is also an effective and deadly method. If you’re jumping and your opponent is slashing at your heard, what is he going to hit? Your feet, of course, for a measly 8 pts of damage.
2. Pistols- Don’t underestimate the power of the pistol. While it is a secondary weapon, it can save your life when you run out of ammo.
Here are some Counter Strike Tips for the most commonly used pistols in the game:

A: USP Tactical: The counter-terrorist default pistol. This is one of my favorite pistols in the game. It has a relatively fast rate of fire so get ready to work your pointer finger and press that that left mouse button as fast as you can! The USP has a low recoil so aim for the upper torso/head for maximum damage.

B: Glock: The default counter-terrorist pistol. I don’t particularly like it. It packs less punch than its counter-terrorist counterpart and its rate of fire is slower. However, it does have a 3-round burst alternate fire mode which is particularly powerful if fired into the upper torso/head. However the 3 round burst mode has a even slower rate of fire than semi-automatic mode so you better make sure you take your opponent out with the first burst. An effective tactic for the burst would be firing into an opponent and then strafing right or left and then unloading another 3 rounds burst to take him out. Obviously this only works in close quarters battle.

C: Desert Eagle: Now, we’re talking! This baby packs quite a punch than the regular pistol. This along with the USP Tactical is usually the sidearm of choice for most CSers, especially snipers. Three well placed shots to the upper body is usually enough to take down even an armored foe. However, one has to beware of this weapon’s recoil. It jumps up a bit after every shot. Therefore I recommend you aim your first shot into the upper part of your opponent’s abdomen. Successive shots will hit higher and higher in your opponent’s body. Unfortunately, the Deagle is a close range weapon. It’s accuracy from afar is horrible.
This concludes Part One of my Counterstrike Tips.
