Thats pretty amazing...presistance is the key to success.
People mistake needs with wants. The definition of wealthy is never wanting what you do not have. We all have what we need. It's what we want that bothers us.
SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60. Let me repeat... A 120 x 60 button and no more that 3 lines of DEFAULT SIZE AND COLOR text.
