Do you want to compete with the pro's by only buying a Net Yaroze?!?! That sounds realy dutch.. trying to sit on the front row wile paying for a cheap ticket. And you make it what you want! You can get in contact with people in the industry, if you do things right! > Anyone can slag off another member of this group but explain to my why > the lifting of the restrictions and provision of a better set of tools > would be a bad thing at this stage. First, we don't want to slag anybody off. We always like it when there are some good idea's that could improve the project. Bet we also must stay realistic. > It was perhaps foolish of me to expect anything more in the way of > support for my wild and outlandish ideas in these groups. > > The group does say freetalk (I thought I was allowed). The knife cuts on both sides, we say in Holland. Freetalk also allowes us to reply. Believe me, I think it's great that you write your idea's and share them with us. Otherwise I would not even reply. But as far as I'm concerned, I just try to give you a bit of an realistic view. Cheers, DEnnis..
