Hi! First I have respect for everyone in this list so please understand that this is not towards anyone! Ok... You know, we are all humans and so are the developers and picture viewer people. So, the developer is so nice enough to monitor this high traffic list and answer taptapsee question. Imagine how many emails they have to deal with from this list just to get feedback from customers? I think we should respect what they do instead of complaining. I am sure taptapsee person who is in this list respond as it is weekend and they are off i guess... I think we are just being too impatient and accepting too much from them. We should wait and I am sure they will add the ability to ask question. If we want to complain and stop supporting developers, then we should be aware that its not going to help! Give them time and support! Fortune papers are hard to read for a human eye to begin with. I think I am not surprised it took time and in fact, I would not have even expected it to recognize that quick! We should appreciate at least some parts of it. Thanks for reading!
