I just realized that in my reply to Neil, instead of quoting him, I posted a video of a freaking ladybug playing with sprinkles. Silly clipboard!

That should have read:

Ah, so I guess when they say "free," they mean $1000.00. That's pretty much how I define free too. :tongue:

My only complaint with Tapatalk is that not enough forums that I care about are on it. I basically bought it to read the forums at apug.org. But it's worth it for that. smile

And that's why they shouldn't be charging forums to use it.

The way I read it was that it was a free plugin for compatible forums. I'm guessing the charge you are talking about comes from server support for non-compatible forums like this one? (ubb.threads)

I don't recall the details -- only that I was not interested in paying them to support their product.
