Default Hey, Dom, Give me a break!

I had a day off on the 1st, had an inspection today, have a house and a 4-plex tomorrow, and you're flooding me with HIP updates!

Don't you realize that this is supposed to be a "slow" time of year? I can't keep up with you!

Hi Guys,

2.5.7.1 has been released. Yes, it's only been a day since 2.5.7 . Isn't beta fun, hehe. You can download it here:

Hey, it's not MY fault! Mike Larson asked for the ability to change the thickness of the photo annotations like arrows, rectangles and circles this morning, so I added that as well as the ability to set a default annotation color.

Then I added a few features to make the program work better for people like Mark Timpani and their 800x600 resolution. Plus I made a few more improvements for the bulk photo import. Bob Elliot said it look like 10 seconds to import all his photos with the latest beta. Gotta keep you guys happy and on your toes!

Don't worry, I promise the next update will have your 'bullets' ready for separating comments. Maybe by tomorrow or Friday. I'm already partially done.

Nobody said you have to stay up late at night playing with your new HIP toys. You told me you were going to sleep 3 hours ago. I figured you were still on Florida time. To remind you that you're back in Idaho, look out the window and think of all the snow you need to shovel!

Russ, have fun. Don't worry I spent 10 years shoveling snow and will have to do so again when I move out of California soon enough.

Charley, how did your inspection today go? Send me an email with your report if you get a chance, I'd like to check it out since you've been making all your own templates!

That's what I've heard too. Now with Jeanne being a full inspector as well they will cover twice the territory.

Just sent you a test run by pony express have a lot more editing to do on my template but I did get that report out with what I have formatted.

My phone has been ringing off the hook today hard to write reports but not complaining as I have booked inspections through next week two yesterday and four more today. Hope to have my template completed by the weekend

Right, Nick!
As you've said, If you're not working, it's because you're not working!

A 4-Plex & 2 houses in last 2 days. Nice to make the house payment in the first day or 2 of the month!
