etc.

Thanks for the positive feedback!
Hopefully the pictures will be changed very soon to better quality and with frames in order to distinguish the pictures from the rest of the text.
And I will look out for errors and correct them when needed.

Maybe I will also add more info about other features.
I'll let the future decide :)

I wish I had come here first before trying to figure things out for
myself.

Anyway, great job on the thread.

My question is there a way to change email address?

Or would I need to open another account?

Thanks

Bill

It's easier to create a new account with new e-mail.
If you already have made orders, they will show up in the new account that is using the PayPal address.
