Okay, first of all, this isn't in the right place. An announcement like this should be made in the Lounge. Secondly, if I'm not mistaken, you should have to have Nate's permission to advertise here, or you'll be regarded as a spammer. Third, can you provide us with more information? Is there any other requirement besides what you listed? How do we direct the short? Finally, don't post in all caps. It's the online version of yelling and quite annoying. Also, you've just joined, so that kind makes things a little iffy, so maybe you can give us a bit of information about who you are and to discover your credentials? It's just that we're very cautious about spam here, nothing personal.
Thanks, Elinor
