Almost all (these) forums would be the wrong one.
by r. proffitt Forum moderator Aug 6, 2006 9:23AM PDT

Here's why.

If you read the forum policies, we are not allowed to post for sale, promote ourselves or such. If you were lucky enough for BOL to mention you in their podcast then they'll likely let your post stand. Other forums would be a quick removal since once it's allowed for one person to promote themselves the spammers will lockon to that as "see!!! you allowed it for them."

No offense intended and I wish any author the best of luck but the rules are best applied evenly as possible to prevent the forums from becoming spam gardens.

The program looks awesome.
Not really sure of the CNET policies concerning this.
Bob, thanks for your input.

Joe, thanks for your input. I have the website bookmarked.
I will try it out.
Good Luck and for your great work authoring this program.
It is just amazing. I wish you and your group the best.

Here's what would work...

Get the software up on DOWNLOAD.COM which is Cnet affiliated. Then when you promote your software you also promote Cnet. Which neatly steps inside the line the policies draw.

First try the libraries were missing.
2nd time was successful.

Joe, Interface looks spooky. Hope I can figure it out. Looks like a long learning curve. The end results look amazing.

Thanks for the tip. And, Good Luck!!! :
