Let me clear a few things up here, now. I have NOTHING agains tutorials! I just
don't like using them. I do NOT consider myself a programming expert, I am not
even good at it (I use Paint Shop Pro). I just have a hard time using tutorials
(but I'll give Packard's a try!). I know they are a valued resource, and its a
good thing they are there. I AM NOT putting down Packard's, yours, or anyone
elses tutorials down.
I want FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEDOM!!!!!  (just like William Wallace)

Don't mind me.
Just sit back and enjoy my signature.
