Just FYI... It's important to read an ENTIRE post, not just a few sentences.
I've pointed out my issues and asked to be enlightened. Guess you missed that completely. As I posted.. I have several versions of the app and will revert for use. But I don't like being charged for an app which is missing core functionality. I don't think 90% of users would be happy with that. And ever heard of beta testing? I realize new versions have bugs and issues. But really.. come one.. huge issues like image insertion in HTML files is not something that could be easily overlooked. It should have been presented the first day of beta testing and should have NEVER made it to a release candidate. I beta test for MAJOR software companies. Have for many years. You're being unrealistic.
