I'm dumbfounded reading this. Not that the logo of a ROM makes any difference in how awesome it is, but this is just awful. It's creepy and scary looking.
Thankfully someone already made an awesome boot animation for CM9 for OpenSensation using the old logo. I'll just stick with that.
This thing give me the creeps. I mean I know it's CM's business how they want to market their freeware product. They own it. They give it away for free. So they can do what they want with it. But new is not always better.
Personally I don't see why they felt the old logo was immature. Android uses the green version of the exact same logo. And as their market share of mobile OS increases it doesn't seem like the logo it holding them back. Plus it was fun! I understand if they wanted to ditch the skateboard, but not the whole logo.
Changing a logo that is well branded is dangerous business. Remember when The GAP tried to change their logo last year? There were damned near riots in malls across America from customers who hated the new one. When you have successfully branded your product, don't futz with it. Brand recognition is 100 times more important than logo 'freshness'.
But that's the great thing about Android. If you don't like something, you can completely remove it, change it, or hide it!
Thoughts?
The new one lacks maturity, looks like some asshat kid who wants to pick a fight with you just because.

Yeah that describes it well. Its getting panned on every website that has a comments section, including the official cyanogen blog.

I think it looks a bit evil sometimes but not too bad IMO.
I do think removing the skateboard from the old logo and freshening it up bit would've been better.
I guess I'll get used to it.
I don't mind it, but I thought the skateboard was cute haha

I think the new mascot looks more juvenile and immature then the previous one. It is kind of hard to say "mature" with a skateboarding alien as your mascot. Some times simple is better. I'm thinking a big cyan "C" with the circle arrow. clean simple and it wouldn't look like a bathroom logo.
Sorry i had to.
If this design is kept maybe they could come out with pinkgenmod for the ladies. make this logo pink and put a dress on her.
This is why they are developers, and not graphic designers.
LOL! that aint a good look guys. Keep the android geezer.
I lol'd..whoever did that should be shot.
credits to the artist that mad that I'm sure it took hard work to make it but I think it looks horrible
Wow....the guy who runs the CM blog is getting testy. He's got a post up in the comments section (where the new mascot is being ripped to pieces) basically saying people are allowed to make comments about tweaks they'd like to see but that people aren't allowed to outright hate it.
Wow. Overly sensitive much?

"people aren't allowed to outright hate it"...?
If you (CM) are going to send your product into the world (even though it is free of cost), you are in some way expecting it to be liked, maybe even loved.
However, it depends on your product. People will like what they like. You can't develop a product for just yourself & expect everyone to love it. If you need everyone to love it, you have to make for them, which means incorporating their suggestions.
How can they expect people to NOT hate it... Ultra sensitive I'd say.
By the way, he logo lacks the cheekiness & fun quotient of the original logo. The new seems to be too serious, too distant, too aloof.
Cheers, Jp
CyanogenMod is a community thing.
Community doesn't like old mascot.
Community want old mascot.
Community get what community want!
I just now saw the new logo, and immediately started looking for a place to vent. I have to say that I have never seen a worse attempt at an icon makeover in my life! It is just plain awful. If they ever roll out CM9 for the Skyrocket, I hope I can find an old boot animation!
I personally like it very much

OpenSensation uses an awesome boot animation with the old logo. Its Cm9 branded and everything.
If there is an official cm9 release, thats the animation im using.

this mascot really looks like some turdy bully kid from the schoolyard who wants to steal your lunch money. btw his name reminds me of sid from toy story...
Meh people quit the crying it isnt that bad okay i admit it i prefer the old one but i wouldn't mind having this one too as a boot animations !
Sent From My Sexy Sensation.
I'll admit, it looks a bit adolescent. I think the main reason that the cyan devs might be gettign a bit grumpy about everyone telling them to put it back to the old is because they actually spent money to get a graphic designer to make it. It isn't horrific, but it i think people get a bit harsh about it... Poor buggers
Not sure what graphic designer made that....smh. Obviously not one whom specializes in logo design. Should have contacted me ;-)

Kmobs just tweeted this: "So.... looks like I don't have a mytouch 4g anymore... ups says delivered... and there is nothing at my door. Fml"
No - I wish I could say I'm joking - but I'm not...
I wonder what the impact on us getting CM is going to be...
Kmobs already had a MT4G, so i am not really sure what UPS was delivering
He just posted an update, "Guys the mytouch I have now I bought full price and am going to remorse. Got it early to work on for you. the other was cheap and is gone."
Yeah, I'm a bit confused as well.

I bought a full price mytouch to work on (and then remorse) as my cheap one came from my friend. The cheap one was supposed to be delivered today but nothing came to my door. I have to return the mytouch I currently have in my possession to T-Mobile.
I'm going to contact UPS tomorrow.
I'd be willing to make a donation to help replace it - I don't have a lot but if it would help?
Thank you for the offer, but I really don't want to accept money. I plan on moving on when the Nexus S comes out so I do not feel it would be fair.
Looks like I'll be sending this phone back tomorrow. Seems this phone is not gonna get to much love from the devs.

This is exactly the kind of crap that's bringing these forums down. A handful of devs make stuff for a phone, and thousands of people follow. Nobody is willing to do anything for themselves anymore. So you're going to return your phone(which is a fantastic phone by the way), because somebody isn't going to make themes and there won't be a bajillion different roms available?
I first started with xda back in the day when I had my t-mobile SDA. I got ahold of an mda with a then unreleased WM6 rom from a microsoft mvp and I uploaded it to xda. I made a few windows mobile roms for myself and shared them in the forums. And I modified some apk's in the nexus one forums. I don't just 'know' how to do this stuff. I learned it because I wanted to. I didn't wait for somebody to give me what I want. I did it for myself, and then I shared.
This is how it used to be at xda. Now it's just 'gimme gimme gimme'.

It's not even that for me, it's more that daunting feeling that something newer and better will come out shortly and I might regret not having waited. I'm not saying the Nexus S will be better, but it's intriguing enough that part of me thinks I should at least give it a try. No harm in comparing right? That's how I decided between the G2 and MT4G and boy am I glad I didn't settle for the G2. I realize how unsustainable and dissatisfying this attitude is since there will always be something "bigger and better" right around the corner, just can't help it

I'm not at all pissed. I'm sad. I'm sad that a forum that was once full of people willing to contribute is now full of people that are 'too busy'. Last week, I worked just under 50 hours, painted my kitchen, replaced the counter-tops, installed a new sink, faucet, and garbage disposal, painted the cabinets, pulled the motor from my motorcycle, cleaned the gutters, raked and mowed my lawn(last time for the season), picked up my 3 girls every day(like I do every day), made dinner every night(wife doesn't get home til after 6)....and guess what? I STILL found time to pull apart rosie.apk and started modifying xml's because people are getting excited now that the mytouch is rooted and I wanted to contribute.
You are NOT too busy. I can assure you of that.
Well, for me, I'm gonna tough it out...

Ya I hear you there. I get like that sometimes. But mainly because I just like gadgets. I bought the nexus one while I was watching their press release. I pressed the refresh button in my browser until the order page went live.
I too got the g2 when it came out, while it was a great device, I found that I didn't need the keyboard, and the added thickness that comes with it. So I traded it in for the mytouch.
The problem with these devices is that they're not THAT different from each other. They all have this or that little feature, but it's all the same underlying hardware. 1ghz cpu, bunch of ram, hd recording...blah blah blah. It gets old after a while. If my company didn't take over my phone contract and pay for my upgrade, I would have gladly kept my nexus one. To this day, it's still my favorite phone. It's just so damn solid.
The mytouch is similar in form, but without all the metal of the nexus, it's just not the same. Anyways, I forgot the point I was trying to make, but we have to tell my girls this all the time "you get what you get, and you don't get upset". You picked that device for a reason, now ride that ***** 'til the wheels fall off!
just my 2 cents i personally feel if cyanogen isnt handling the rom for the phone it never seems to get done the right way look at the vibrant i still think devs will make roms for it no disrespect to anyone..

I'm thinking of starting to mod this device, just not sure where to start looking for information. I've never messed with it much before, it's been years since I've done any programming and I've pretty much forgotten everything. But, I'm always willing to learn new things
Kmobs had a working CM6 besides camera and a couple of other features on his MT4G... it should all get sorted out and we will get CM6. Instead of complaining and resorting to another phone because it was out earlier and has CM6 already... Why not actually contribute by helping trying to work and mod the phone you picked and for that reason.

Returning a phone because one dev hasn't done anything with it yet in the barely-two weeks its been out? Seems a little extreme, lol
I was involved in the HD2 forum before Android on SD was a wild spert from a dev. and the community over there needs no words of compliment (it is a given) that they are awesome.
Then I traveled on to the G2 forum where the contributions there were amazing as well.
The Question:
Is the Samsung Galaxy S 4G community the WORST anyone else has had the misfortune of dealing with as well?
From:
Jumping ship and advertising other handsets
To: Opening the most rediculous threads Only to lead another person on.

Yes I agree with the original poster. I had this phone for about a week before I returned it because of the aforementioned reasons with this forum. Even offered to send my phone to a dev but got nothing but f'd up attitude from most everyone involved (besides the dev)! If I'm gonna have an android I want a community surrounding it that does not spend all day "DER DER #$% this is in the wrong forum, we have nothing else better to do but ***** @ everyone for attempting to get this community started!"
On a personal note, it sucked extra cause I had just sold my vibrant shortly before the 4g release cause that community also had seen its downfall in the past few months itself. Came over here to see this fledgling little group trying to get off the ground but not being in any way at all welcoming to any real thought provoking conversation. How dare we ask questions and talk about our phone!
As awesome as a phone as this is, it just does not appear that its ever gonna be a dev phone. Wish the opposite was the truth. Samsung is partly to blame for that also.

Did someone say iPhone ... lol... oh no so that's why Apple is suing Samsung ... we copying not only their phone but the owners attitudes as well... lol...
I'm just joking, trying to lighten the mood...
Back to the subject I think what affected this phone was that it came out too late after the Nexus S and too close to the G2x... I think if it had the extra space of the Vibrant we would be as good as that community ... or if it ran gingerbread ... but oh well... we do have less issues than the lather phone I mention...

I think it's just a few who think themselves "forum police". I honestly hope this doesn't turn into the "vibrant" forum's. Please TRY, I know it's hard at times, to be friendly to ANY one. New to old, dumba$$'s to dev's, try to treat them all as you would want to be treated (except for you self deprecating, masochist's ).
I always see everyone complaining about the Vibrant forum, I don't really see anything wrong with it. Or was it something that happened in the past?

I dunno, I'm technically savvy. I did alot on my G1 in terms of mod'ing. Google Experience phones are designed for that.
Anytime you get a phone with a customized rom though things change up a bit. Hence, the G2x is gonna get alot more in the community because it's a fairly stock build/experience.
I knew this when I bought the SGS4G. I like the screen (amoled), the speed etc. I'll probably get the urge to do some heavy mod'ing at some point, but for now I'm happy.
That's just me.
Sure this was a bit of a rant and like most could have been titled a little better. BUT atleast its not in the dev area. If this community keeps being stupid, can Mr. Clown close the whole thing, I don't want him too! But dumb asses keep creating thread that had answee before sgs4g even existed. Hence the sgs4g deal in the vibrant, I mean its not even a question when the answer was where they looked to create thier feeble attempt to go around krylon. Man give him a break! ****!

what issues are you having and sorry you feel as if the rest of the devs other then krylon dont meet your expectations.
I don't get it. What problems are you having with the phone? Why are you complaining about the community? If it's a problem, there are plenty of other forums on this phone (rootzwiki is pretty popular nowadays ). I get that it's frustrating sometimes. I get frustrated too, but please don't project that thought to the entire community. I help out here and there and I get flamed from the very people I help. But one again, let's just calm down. If you guys have an issue with the phone, just search and then post about it. I usually answer my pm's...as quite a few of you already know...

I can only judge it by what I have gotten out of it.....currently my SGS4G runs faster, cooler, and stays charged longer than stock. The audio is better, I'm running GB and I got my choice of 9 lock-screens etc, etc....
Ok, back to the drawing board!
I feel like such a dueche, I was really tired and my expectations were very high! I wasn't ready for any challenges and got very frustrated.
I only woke up this morning to see a kind friendly community among the SGS4G crowd. I guess I got spoiled over on the HTC side again.
My issues are that I feel like I am back at square one... Example: Flashing an EXT4, the only thing I could find was a universal zip for another phone which did not work. I really just need to put some time back into this like a noob again.
Once more I apologize and might just need to delete this thread for the sake of y'all being so nice... Uhg I feel like such an ass lol
lol dude, just take your time. I'm fairly new here myself, and don't find it all that bad. There are lots of guides out now to help you get through flashing a new rom, and there is always someone who is willing to help (I see Jager, FB, dsexton, and Raver in here a lot helping out people).
Anyway, just spend some time reading about the ROMs we have in the dev section now, and find one you like.
btw, getting ext4 on froyo is as easy as flashing the bali kernel in cwm. works great with any froyo rom (including stock). GB roms tend to be a bit tricky, but you'll get it if you follow one of the guides.
Put it this way, my SGS4g, NOT overclocked is running 3X faster than it did stock (according to quadrant) on one of the new crop of GB roms that are out now and is currently on 25 hours of uptime with 65% battery left.
and in case you haven't seen it yet, this thread is gold:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1117554
What ROM are you trying to flash? I am currently on bionix frost and I love it completely. Runs on par with the GB roms. If you want some GB, look into icbinb GB or whitehaks new ROM. But let us know what you want to do and we can point you in the right direction...

Just report the thread at the top right hand corner to see it go away. I feel like I shouldn't visit Android Central on a daily basis because I can find all the articles on the XDA Evo section.
I don't doubt that this dual screen idea could be more of a future norm, so long as it is done right. Have gotten some hands on time with the Echo and while you sort of get the idea, it just really seems tacky. At least I came away from the Echo with that feeling. I'm more interested in dual screen displays than 3D as well.
So long as it's done right, all around.

Honestly right now the iPad looks more appealing than any Android OS tablet. I think Android needs to work on polishing Android for tablets a bit more.

Based on your logic common citizens shouldn't try to stop little old ladies from getting mugged, unless they are police officers. Your logic shows a small picture view.

If they'd build this so that there's a flush (seemless) connection between the screens I'd seriously consider these ....as it is their just.... stupid.
Keep the thread on subject. I am moving it to General as it does not belong in the EVO section.
The concept is nice, however I just cant get over the gap in the middle between the two screens, it really ruins the experience for me. Now if they do it RIGHT and allow true multitasking between each window this will be a good competitor; the screens are 5.5 inches so that's just big enough to allow full featured browsing/operation on each screen.
Welcome to the Noob Friendly Q&A section for NoSensi Roms by Victoryo. All versions Supported. All credit for ROM development is strictly Victoryo's - so be sure to give him ALL your praise. And Please, let's build each other up - and work together to make this Spectacular ROM the best it can be. Cheers!!!!
Nice post. Keep up the good work.
(Since you said questions only in your reply I edited my post to include some questions I had.) (How do I install this rom? Do I have to root my phone first? How do you root a phone? Does rooting hurt? Does this work on a Motorola Startac or Razr?)

Look who has Jokes! Lol.... Dirty.
In Order from last to first :
(5)No, unless properly ported by a competent developer to match your Razrs build and....... Wait a Razr? Must have missed that memo. (4) Rooting hurts only when your ill-informed and are chastised with an Iron Fist. (3) Rooting is Simple - Download the Ace Hack Kit then search for two hours for the 'Effen' manual which you didn't realize was included in the effen Hack Kit, start over again, and utilizing this most elusive of manuals, do it right. (I really did this BTW) I was told by a scary dude with Fists of Iron that 'The right way is never easy, the easy way is never right.' (If this fails - DO NOT SEARCH - your situation is unique and probably hasn't been answered. Wait for the lady with the diapers, she will wipe your ass for you.) (2) No YOU don't have to root it. Here at XDA - we do everything for you! (1) Install this ROM only after being Iron Fisted, Freshly Changed and wiped - from there ROM Manager, Clockwork Mod or 4ext recovery does the rest.
Please do not read the Roms OP or ORIGINAL POST. There will be no information that will be worth your while there. It's usually just filled with each roms characteristics, specifics, and essentials, tips, tricks, and Do's & Donts, as well as other useless information.
For the New dude (or MOD ) who read this and took it seriously, please don't. Nerds got jokes too fools! Now then Wolf - your gonna get me banned before my first full 24 hours of support! Thanks for keeping it lighthearted though, and please people : Flash the ROM and ask away!
R O F L M A O ! ! ! Great post. Very informative. Thank you for taking the time to explain it to me so thoroughly. It's people like you who make XDA what it is. Thanks again and keep up the good work. (I guess I will have to flash this rom now that I know how to do it. I am still sure I will have plenty of questions though.)

On a side note - and to bring a sense of actual support to the thread - here's a tidbit we need to add to the NoSensi OP. When installing a NoSensi theme - please uninstall FB updates. The original theme thread made that clear, and I totally forgot. It really jacks FB up.
There. Finest Support Available on XDA.

Lol, I love it man, keeps things light - hoping a noob or two or ten may be enticed to give it a shot if its laid back and relaxed. Hell maybe a veteran will find it appealing. Anywho - No worries on this end - I'm no Mod....... Yet.
At least NoSensi isn't sitting with a fat goose egg. I would have cried finally getting a chance to.support a Rom in a big way and No Post were made.... An OP Support thread too? (Thanks again Victoryo, and again....) It's right perfect for now. Next step - ShroomySense, or hopefully NoSensi4G for Inspires utilizing our OTA radio and basebuild.... Victoryo was working on one but there were a few glitches and he is DesireHD. Maybe he will just turn it over to me and he can keep the credit. Guess I better go on and put my phone down for awhile - I've rode this pony long enough.
shroomy sense? ok you've peaked my interest. I'll be keeping my eye on you. it is a good rom though and because there isn't a hundred noobs in here asking questions is a tribute to that. no problems= no questions= good rom
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA Premium App
Lol... Yes - ShroomySense. It might just be a grand aspiration, but the only ROM that is available themed already is Honeysense and that is based off of Stonerk's work. And with Stoners work being so popular - its unique sure, but not exclusive. Now that the OTA is out for Inspire I been dying to do this, or get a start anyways. But ShroomySense would have a very psychedelic vibe. Wolf Imade me a Animated mushroom boot animation that's pretty beastly. That was where the brainchild began forming. Then I thought couldn't a battery meter be a mushroom? And one thing I have Not seen at all is any sort of tye-dye accents or button Mods or, is it possible, Overscroll glow!? What I love about HoneyHD theme is the inverted blue on black - but any colors would look good on black, especially tyedye if it would be possible.
So anyhow, I am getting a laptop that I am hoping isnt too old to run everything I will need to do all this, and actually it should be here any moment. As far as NoSensi goes - my phone loves it. I have actually only flashed once in about a month, that was to give Pirates rumrunner a go. NoSensi has been rock solid since day one. I wouldn't have opened the OP if it was constantly being barraged - and Since V doesn't have an Inspire I'm more than happy to lend a hand. I learn so much helping other people out that its more of a privilege than anything...

dude a rom like that would be epic. I'd be all over it. love everything about it, even though my psychedelic days are behind me. I guess I'm still a stoner at heart though. tye-dye overscroll glow is a brilliant idea not sure how easily that could be implemented though. I cant help but think the buttons would be easier, but who knows I'm just starting to play around with themeing so I could be way off base. anyway great idea good luck with it
edit: by the way if you get a laptop that just aint quite up to snuff, slap ubuntu on it. that runs well on just about anything
Hmmmmm.... I don't know dyliho..... I was thinking you should do more of a Baroque theme.
Edit: Good to see you considering it.
Hey I didn't break any themes! Oh - Baroque as in Rennaissance-ish Italy... Yeah, that might work. I could have Bach and Chopin ringtones, and Gaudy exhuberant stylings wrapped in classic art from that Era!
Hmmm.... I will think about that. Ok. Probably not! Lol, check this out though - this definiton could be implicated with the Nature of what I want to build - not the stylings though....
Baroque period, era in the history of the Western arts roughly coinciding with the 17th century. Its earliest manifestations, which occurred in Italy, date from the latter decades of the 16th century, while in some regions, notably Germany and colonial South America, certain of its culminating achievements did not occur until the 18th century. The work that distinguishes the Baroque period is stylistically complex, even contradictory. In general, however, the desire to evoke emotional states by appealing to the senses, often in dramatic ways, underlies its manifestations. Some of the qualities most frequently associated with the Baroque are grandeur, sensuous richness, drama, vitality, movement, tension, emotional exuberance, and a tendency to blur distinctions between the various arts.
Baroque sounds pretty cool. A New Age Baroque definition with A Hippie era look. I was being sarchastic up top - reading the.definition again, it is exactly the vision I have...

But with Axiom gone, it seems like Viper Rom is the only game in town....for me at least, because I like de-Sensed ROMs
Thanks!

This was the last working T-Mobile ROM, it seems. Viper doesn't have WiFi calling, I am not sure if anything does. Why the heck did they close the thread and take down all download links?
Too many people complaining, there were also some bugs but I think over time axiom could have evolved into something better, its not the end though, energy ROM is still going and that is just as good

Well, you are in a position to speak for the team. Do you think leaving one's users hanging without any warning or explanation is something a developer should ever do? I know from own experience that ROM development is hard work, and you were doing it for free. However, your ROM had a following, people were mostly very happy, you promised some future. Than out of the blue - boom! No more Axiom S! Gone! No explanation, no warning, no clarification - nothing! Closed the thread, turned off the lights, went home.
I see Mike is already hacking SGIII. That's cool, but you don't just stick a finger at your users, and go find another set of users. At the very least you owe them an explanation where you are going and why.

Not speaking for anyone...but the Axiom team did post on Twitter that they were ceasing development due to hate mail...probably what he meant when he referred to complaining.
"Development of Axiom ROMs has ceased. After much thought, tons of hate mail & other nonsense, we've come to the conclusion it's not worth it"-Axiom website/Twitter
I Am? I didn't know I was hacking the SGS3. Lol
Here's the thing...Axiom ROMs was never.....ever in my plans. Honestly how it started was Zylith and Zydroid. Zylith got busy so I picked up the slack and did more. Keep in mind I was doing this because this is what I wanted in a ROM and just happened to share it with the community, because it was Zylith's to begin with.
Personally, I got tired of the lack of support for HTC phones as of late. I originally was going to get a SGS3 over the One S, but decided not to wait for its release. Now I'm where I wanted to be originally. I'm sorry if you feel like I turned my back....AXSuite was open-sourced.....all that was needed now was a stock 1.84 base and those tweaks to be dropped right in...and BOOM, Axiom ROM again.
Things are rather busy in my life right now.....How? Well....I'm married for one.....got a kid on the way for two, getting into real estate for three, and Apple just did a product release which me, being a Tech Support Advisor for them....have to work much more hours.....which is already cutting away the time i had before.
Don't lash out at the rest of the team because of the unhappiness or disappointment you've experienced with production of a ROM ceased. Everyone has a brain and can learn this stuff people! You depend so much on people like us to do the work, why not learn it instead of getting pissed off because we choose personal lives over Android?
Last I checked....no one pays my bills, no even paid to use Axiom ROMs.....so we're not obligated to discussing anything really.
Don't mean to sound like a asshole, but I'm the only one who gives a damn about my personal life, no one else in here does. I gotta llok out for my best interest....so it is what it is. As for me doing work on the SGS3....not gonna happen. I won't be doing any ROMs for it, I'm much to busy to maintain a public release!
Stop with the PMs, stop with the frustration. AXSuite is open-sourced and for public use. Learn how to make a ROM and get it running. The whole reason we open-sourced it in the first place was to inspire others that want to learn how to do it, to actually do it!
Hate me or love me guys, I had to say what I needed to say. Not trying to be no douche or inconsiderate....I felt you guys deserved at least a reason as to why things happened the way they have....Nothing personal against anyone....but I gotta look out for me and my family and thats time that I can't spend on Android for now....

Thanks for clarifying that....
Some of the team members lost interest because of how things started to turn out... People calling us kangs of Venom tweaks etc etc....you know the ordeal. We decided it's not fun anymore, not worth it either. We did it for free....asked for nothing in return. Seeing you all happy was enough for us. But the hate mail along with what's stated above....just killed the motivation....
Don't hate us for it, look at the users of other One S ROMs....not saying names....they're the ones who discouraged us. Imagine catching BS from people you don't know for you contributing something you expect nothing in return from....we're all human...

By all means man, family comes first. Thank you (and your team) for the hard work that you put into the rom. It is very much appreciated. I myself would love to get to a level where I could develop, rather for myself or public, but between work, kids, and life, it would never happen, thank you for using the little free time you have to help us. The fact that you put as much time and dedication into the work you did is truly a source of charity for everyone who used your roms, or any of the information you provided. I'm sorry that you had to deal with hate mail and complainers. Too many people out there feel they are 'owed' something, and don't get the fact that what you do is out of kindness and hobby, and not something that you are obligated to do.
Take care, congrats on the upcoming baby, and good luck.
