thx alot!

Wooohooo! Finally!

:slight_smile: Faaaaaantastic news! Now I cant wait to get THE email. My first upgrade! Cool! May I ask if the old 3.1 ZTL files are compatible with the new3.5 version? (I know I could just try it, but what if theyre not compatible… then I`d have to reinstall 3.1 again to be able to finish my work).

It is a trap !! Don’t download it…

…before I have downloaded :smiley:

Congratulations Pixologic, thank you for the hard work.

Grats to Windows people. Chop Chop on the Mac release.

This is sweet. I’ll be eagerly awaiting my upgrade details, camping out by my email inbox.
