Jeff ..I sometimes load 100 pics into a report.
I then add comments underneath them which point out the specific defects. How long would this take on the PDA program.? |

Sure, I'd give him some time to play with it as he just bought it but he sounded excited. You really need to use what you feel the most comfortable with. If you love your PDA, stick with it. If you want to ours out then load it on your tablet and play around. If you want a temporary license let me know.

He showed it to me when we talked. He was asking me about what SEO modifications to make and I gave him a few suggestions. He has a great looking site too! I told him he did a great job, especially since he did it from scratch. He's got a lot of the SEO tips already in place (Which is why he ranks #1 in so many places).
