Hi guys. Sorry to be late to the thread. There were some hiccups with the move and I have only been online sporadically. 

I thought I should write to say that my laptop is still in a box halfway across town, so I won't be able to check this stuff out right away. 

From German's screenshots, though, I think what Ken's come up with looks pretty cool. Keep at it! And I do hope to regroup with the community when I've got my affairs in order again.
