Had to grab 5 minutes to try your instructions. THANK YOU!!! I still have a long way to go with Twilight and will have to scour the web for all the tutorials I can get my hands on and then practice, trial, error. Again - problem when you are trying to teach yourself. Merry Christmas! :D :^:

I struggle with this every time, and was hoping that someone could literally just be kind enough to g...
