Thanks for all your help Steve. It's sad you feel you have to stop being an administrator/moderator but I hope you will stick around.

I'm sorry that you feel the need to step down as moderator, Steve. I think you've done a bang-up job of the task and everything else that keeps TalkGraphics running smoothly. I feel that Magix, Xara, and TalkGraphics will lose quite a bit because of their recent decisions/actions that have caused several of the long standing TG moderators to denounce their positions.

It's good to hear that you'll be sticking around, though. It'll be great to see you start posting some new drawings done using Xara Xtreme and/or Xara Designer 'Whatever It Is' again (maybe?). After all, you'll have a lot more time on your hands for drawing and photography.

You have my respect and thanks for all you've done,
Harry

Steve your knowledge of Xara product and help on these forums is invaluable, whatever else happens many thanks from me for sharing this

In the past, when we had our differences, you said to me on more than one occasion that the forum is more important than any one individual member

That said the strength of the forum lies in its regular participants and their willingness to help and share, so its great that an expert like yourself stays on as a 'regular guy'

I'm only an ordinary member and I know not what goes on behind the scenes, but it would appear TG is in a state of flux at least in terms of Moderation. Obviously Moderation is needed and it is a big commitment, and a likely a burden, on boards such as these.

Independence is often one of the first things to go when something is successful, especially if funding comes from elsewhere [and if money is tight]

You done a good job; be proud

Hi Steve,

There was no reference for this thread other than seeing you are now a 'Regular Guy'. That being the case I hope you're staying on to at least guide us with your tremendous wealth of knowledge.

Obviously only you and Xara/Magix know the inside scoop so whatever it is, I hope all is well with you.

I just want to add my 2 cents of thanking you so much for the tremendous amount of learning you have provided me and countless others on this forum and that you may have enough time now to do more of that without having to worry about moderating too.

Again, many thanks Mr. Ledger.

Steve,

Thank you for all the time and effort you have put into this forum and for the huge volume of useful information that you have imparted and all that helpful advice that you have so readily given.

I never could understand how you managed to find time for it all. What will you be doing now to fill the vacuum?
