Very nice post with a little slideshow boost. Yes, I'm with Andy, make it a public post, otherwise buyers can't find you.

Thanks for the comments Debb and Andrew - unfortunately I am not a paid member at this point so my post is not allowed to go to anyone but members.   I do have this posted on my own website though so the public can see it there.  I will be looking into paid membership once I have a little more content.
