Try posting this up in the general section mate, should get more views then
As for approaching people in the gym, I understand you being wary as it must seem intimidating at first, but as long as you don't ask someone for help in the middle of their set, it'll probably be ok. Everyone was a beginner once. Is there not a trainer in the gym who could help you out?
Here's some articles you might want to have a read of as you're just starting out:

This site is pretty good for exercise demonstrations:

Click on the muscle you're interested in and it will tell you what exercises you can choose from. There's little animated gifs so you can see how the exercise is performed
Good luck and welcome to MT
