Thanks again for more of these informative replies - ESPECIALLY the sale link for the Posers lol :)

Just a small clarification - I have actually only been gone for about 2 years, but I had said "If anyone has been around for the last 5 years or so" because I figured those people would be aware of both what was going on before I left as well as what happened while I was away.

I was just going to leave that one, but so many say "Whoa, five years is a long time" lol, felt the need to fix that one.  :)

I really really do appreciate all the advice and opinions.  Makes me very nostalgic for the old community days here.  

Thanks everyone!
