Like I said before I'm an idiot when it comes to this stuff. I seem to prefer learning things the hard way. Such as the problem I have here: I watched many videos and searched a lot on the internet on taking apart/cleaning/installing rear derailleurs to make sure I got it right. But only NOW do I find the video about how my rear derailleur pulley's are very slightly different and it turns out I put them on the wrong way. The one I put on the back should be at the front/top and vise versa.. again, I learn things the hard way.. This is why I do this though, the best way to learn is hands on! Thanks anyway guys, I'll let you know how it goes tomorrow...wow do I feel dumb.
