I don't know if FF has seen it, but I certainly have!!! I would ask for another extention.....worth a try

Oh, and thank you Steve - nice of you to say.

I've got 1 or 2 credits toward redcap, and ronviers so far, if Vlad/FF will allow it. Pers will havta wait in line til we see where things are at, but she can be 3rd if I have any credits left, and if it's allowed. People doing sh*t should get whatever help is available, and all 3 mentioned are doing stuff, making filters and on the forums all the time.

----Well, whatever works, and you could always pay it forward with the next generation of new filter makers in that way. I'd actually like to know Vlad/FF's stance on sharing credits. I've gotten 3-5 since I got my copy of FF, and I don't want to push them (FF) into the poor house so to speak, but if I can give those credits away, then I'd like to.

----Yikes, I would have to recommend that people don't put a computer program before sleep, food, work, family, or anything really, it's just for fun right. Vlad said in another thread ( http://www.filterforge.com/forum/read...5&TID=2780 ) that I can give my extra high usage credits to you and ronviers, so I would say go ahead and email Vlad/FF about that and jump on it while Vlad's yes is still fresh on the books eh.

Those are some big names - I follow the work of all of them. I would like to see them all get copies before me. I just wish I could get mine before my copy expires.

all with a free copy.....

not free - earned All I'm asking for is the opportunity to earn a copy.

PS..... Please don't get me wrong.....I do want to see all of you obtain a copy for your efforts and contributions.....because I know that it is getting harder and harder to obtain high usage as the Filter library grows....

My only concern is that doing it upon "donating" high usage sets the appearance of a bad precedence towards "favoritism" and "clickiness". You and Redcap will be happy, but there will certainly be other "bummed-out" filtermakers who deserve the same treatment.....and won't get it unless they get other filtermakers to "donate" their extra high usage awards for them.....

I was tempted to donate my own extra high usage to help, but I can't do it because I don't have enough to give equally to everyone who deserves it.....

For each high usage loaned, I want two to be payed back.....one as interest.....or I'll send my rendition of Luca Brasi to collect LOL....
