[QUOTE="Wye, post: 3483196, member: 50885"] Not surprisingly, no real meat to the answers given. And what is with that "what would YOU like to see?" I'm all for customer feedback and suggestions, but this is not the time. Imagine going to an ice-cream shop for your favorite cone: "Can I have vanilla and chocolate please?" "We just discontinued those flavors, but we have others, and new ones!" "Hrrm... Ok, show me what you've got." "What would YOU like on your ice-cream?" "Are you kidding me?" Bringing it back to context: I already told you what I wanted. YOU should be selling me your new flavors (online product), this is not the time for my suggestions. Having said that, I have to say something just to weight in against some ideas I see expressed here, if I'm to pay for anything at all.
