I'm definitely going to pay the 100 picgture package at some point, I totally get why now. i didn't yesterday but I was also pretty busy with a lot of different things too but I totally get it now. Everybody with your hand out thinking you oughtta get it for free, need to find something free then. Youg et what you pay for and Tap Tap See is totally worth what little they're asking. Thanks and I'm off my soapbox now. Sorry, Lol. Tae care guys. On Nov 8, 2013, at 7:14 AM, Lea Langley wrote:
