OK, so I'm at 'uke boot camp thanks to uncle Rod. Before I was confident with about 12 or 14 of (what I thought where) the most common chords. Mostly I could figure out which finger goes where, taking a peek at http://ukulelehunt.com/2010/08/11/songs-with-chords-you-know/ is a good help.
Struggling through uncle Rod's pages however, I come across chords that are less common (I think). So I'm mucking about with trying to figure out the correct fingerpositions. Where can I find a comprehensive uke chord-chart that has the fingers on the right spot? Like Cdim or Fdim, or Fm7 (I can spot this particular across-pattern on several chords)? I haven't got the faintest idea of how to tackle that one. I thought I could tie knots in my pinky and braid with all others, but those are not a walk in the park. Guess that's why it's called boot camp, right?

Other question: in what order should you go trough the different progressions? Sheet by sheet from top to bottom, or first row on every sheet, then second row etcetera? Or can I just fiddle about and do as I please? It's a boot camp, not a holiday right?
