Yes. I know who it is. But I won't tell. They're doing a pretty good job of not letting on who they are.

The second software package was pretty ok Cool!

A resize feature would be nice. I still have to go to my editor to make an avitar or post profile picture. So, I got distracted and forgot to do....

Everything is pretty understandable and I would be happy with the second package.

I tried to register, first using my old password, then several new ones. It kept giving me an invalid password response. Not sure what is wrong and why it won't take any password I put in. Cry
