							| Hello everybody, I �m a bit embarassed to ask this question, but I hope to find someone of the "older" members who can help me understand the system of the site correctly :) I just came to this wonderful website a few days ago, so maybe I understood or did something wrong. My question is about the points system.I uploaded worksheets and I received 34 points for them. And as far as I have read before when you have more then 30 you become premium member and can download 30 worksheets every day, did I misunderstand that maybe? :s
 Once I received all my points I downloaded all tutorials I could find on how to create worksheets (as those are my first tries and need to learn how to make such wonderful worksheets as some of you create). So now I downloaded 34 things from the site and since 2 days I can �t download anything new. But shouldn �t I be able to normally since I had over 30 points before? I hope somebody will be so kind to help me out of this confusion and show me what I did wrong :)
 Thank you very much in advance Saraa :) |  22 Oct 2009

							| Hello Saraa, 
 I am afraid you misunderstood. You can only download 30 Free worksheets a day from the new contributions. i.e, the ones that are being shown to the left of the screen. Any other worksheet you download, will cost you one point...
 
 This said, you should still be able to download the 30 free worksheets from the new contributions. Once you have reached 30 points, you never lose the premium member status.
 
 Cheers,
 Linda

							| I �ve just downloaded your animal game (nice one by BTW, thanks!) so that you still have one point left in case of an emergency for an older worksheet you absolutely need!
