You are welcome )
BTW, looks like your site doesn't allow upload of animated gifs (which are very well suited for explaining one's point). Would you allow that?

Yep, this has been requested before — I'll add your vote for the feature. We'll see if we can add GIF support with the next batch of forum improvements. ;)
