All the verb tenses and moods, and ample example sentences, are available. A great deal has already been written. The information is spread over several threads, but isn't that hard to find.
I understand your frustration about not having it all at your fingertips and that different sources give different names for the tenses and moods. My suggestion has always been the same - since you're learning Spanish, learn what they call their tenses and moods; learn what they have to say about them. I suggest you find a website written entirely in Spanish that explains the verb structure. Take the time it takes to understand what is written and what is explained. There should be good sample sentences in the site you choose, too. English doesn't have the same verb structure, so why try to fit our structure on the Spanish structure? That'll only cause confusion.
