Hi Ian.
Thats no problem, thanks for your quick reply and for your positive
answers. Don't worry I am not asfer immediate results lol, happy to
wait. Very happy that all are possibilities.
Also very much looking forward to seeing this RPG maker and having a
play with it. I am very excited to see what it involves and how it
will work. Do you think we will see anything of it any time soon?
Thanks again for getting back to me and thanks for all your hard work,
its very much appreciated.
