Máirín,

WONDERFULL idea, so we also get the people who installed "counted" with
the exclusivly, unique and personalized Wallpaper with the "own" account

I like that idea very much; and also Mike is happy to get some more

Who will take the lead to bring such an idea to Max / Mike or whom it may

Gerold
