							| On the topic of helping new members 
 |  
							| Hello: 
 I was just scanning and reading through some of your issues about helping members. �I was and consider myself still a newbie even though I am a premium member. �The way I look at it is.... I still look at some of the new downloads and sometimes if I see a printable that hasn�t been downloaded and looks like it could be of good use for me whether it be for future reference or immediate use...I download hoping that it will help that person. �Now, I don�t always �know if that person is new or not but, I hope they are. 
 On the second part, to answer one of the members questions, sometimes I look at printables and then when I leaves comments I attempt to always leave a thank you, unless I am really pressed for time and if I see mistakes I try to let the person know. �Only obvious things that I know I am sure of like missing articles such as a/an/the. �I don�t intend to be snobby, I just want to help the person so that they realize and in return I would want someone to do the same for me if they have time. �;-) 
 I hope this helps.
