It goes beyond credit card numbers, you would not be able to play the videos internationally. Video licensing is a sticky, sticky business and there are many restrictions for Amazon's video delivery service.

There are two really good programs for editing photos as a beginner.
1) Picasa by Google (use this if you have a windows computer)
2) iPhoto by Apple (use this if you have a mac)Anything else is needlessly complex for the beginner, for example the black and white filter for both programs is more than just a color swap to black and white. Picasa and iPhoto both apply several extra filters in order to insure you get the best black and white photo you can get from an automated process, with any other program such as Photoshop or the Gimp these additional processes are not performed automatically so it can take quite a bit of doing to get a good photo out of them.
If you are new to photo editing keep it simple and you will be much happier. Photoshop and the Gimp are very power pieces of software but their learning curve is steep and if you are not going to do professional editing it is really not worth your time and frustration.

@All – Please try not to think of any job as a crappy little job, any work you do is something to be proud of and it should be treated as such regardless of what that job is. Our benefit to mankind is in that which we produce so whatever you do, do it with your utmost ability and with absolute unfettered pride.

@Chem – My point about college was that it is more an option that lets you jump ahead in the job pool, but to be fair it requires a four year minimum investment which is time you can be gaining experience and clout in an industry. There are plenty of opportunities to work your way up the ladder you just have to be willing to cinch up that belt and work your butt off in a position that will start off less than glorious, much like college. College is a risk based investment that should be evaluated carefully for your chosen industry, it doesn't guarantee you a job, that is why we have 15,000 Masters working as full-time parking lot attendants in this country.
@All – Whatever you choose to do, work hard, speak up, give praise, accept blame, contribute, follow graciously and you will be rewarded. I didn't even complete one semester of college yet I worked my way into a corporate directorship. College is only one path but courage and dedication are required for any path you choose. The minute you start blaming the situation, the economy or other factors you have lost, these are simply constraints that should help guide your decision.

Scandalicious – College is a requirement to enter many positions for which you don't have demonstrable experience. College is simply a credential that lowers risk when hiring. If there is a particular industry you want to work in try and find a support job in a company serving that industry, as a secretary, personal assistant, gopher or other support position you learn valuable skills and gain company knowledge that can allow you to work your way into more advanced positions as they become available. I have seen this happen many times and even used this strategy myself. Once you have a significant amount of experience no one cares about a college education because all they have to do is call your previous employer and ask how you did.
Other things to consider are positions where the employer takes on very little risk, many sales positions are almost entirely commission based and so they are much easier to acquire because if you don't make sales you don't get paid. Another good option is serving at a restaraunt. I did this for a couple years and it was good money, if you work hard, and take good care of your tables you can go home with $200 or more every night.

@fern – The categories are just advisory its a filter more than a requirement so there is no need to move it.
We are not planning on allowing edits to forum posts. Forums are conversations, and just like a conversation you can't go back and change what you said. If you change what you said or delete what you said it changes the entire context of the conversation not just what you posted.
Comment removal will come sometime soon.
As to design all primary and secondary navigation are accomplished through links while actions such as "Save" or "Publish" are the only thing that use purple buttons.

@pink_bubbles – That error is usually associated with a disconnection during upload. Is your internet Access spotty (does it go off and on occassionally?)

Order a pole from a reputable source and you will not be dissappointed. You can use our X-Pole finder on the side of the site or in the shopping link. Generally poles arrive in less than 5 business days. If fast service is an absolute neccessity then call X-Pole directly tell them you need one tomorrow and they'll get you a quote on overnight shipping.

@Polefitmom – Friend requests should go to your normal email.
-
@amy – Your email was on our blacklist, which means whether by accident or on purpose at sometime in the past you clicked the spam button on your gmail account. I have removed you from the blacklist.
@HollySatine – You have a gmail account and sometimes when emails look similiar it will thread them and mark one as already read, look for emails grouped together. The is very likely for sites that send a significant amount of notifications like StudioVeena.
-
If your only reason for using reader is to keep up with studio veenaits probably overkill. Where rss readers really excel is in bringing all your news together in one place. Almost all news and informational sites have rss feeds so you can just look at one place to get caught up rather than visiting several sites.

To change your email address you'll need to go to your profile and click the Edit Profile link. You just change your address there and then you'll have to respond to the email verification that comes to your inbox.
As to logging in with your username, there is no way to change back to that. Email login is the way I built the system, however most browsers cache form values and typing the first couple letters of your email address in the field should cause your browser to bring up a list of options.

@Daphne77 – Most Android phones can watch the lessons, if yours can't it is not likely to change unless HTC releases an update. Android is a very fragmented operating system and so certain android phones just won't work due to manufacturer additions and changes to the OS.
