I get cramping in my fingers,legs,chest and toes and its very uncomfortable the only thing that works fast for me is Icy Hot it smells like menthol and dont rub or get it near your eyes or you will be howling but it relieves the cramping and takes away the pain for me anyway.

Thanks  Pete and dino for the kind words,I remember when I first used this new software program it took me over 8 hrs to produce a 3 min video after trial and error I can do it now in under an hour but there are so many other possibilities to explore including 3D(that will be a challange) but if I can pull it off and add a nice recording to the sound track it will give me a lot of satisfaction and look professional which in a true sense is the meaning of professional combining visual,audio,performance and most important a good song. smile

I  played thru a few bars of it normally the chord is a C chord but he capo's the first fret which makes it a C# this is a tough sequence of chords for beginners if it were in the key of C the chords roughly would be C C/B Dm7 Fsus4 Am but not in the same order I capoed the 1st fret and played open C and used a decending run hopefully for you there exists an easier arrangement because it is a wonderful song beautifullly sung by this young man I hope you find the chords somewhere smile

gives the details. Hope this helps

It didn't disable my PC but it did throw up several files as being infected by a virus. It was only after I had moved these files to the virus vault did I find out that Avast had experience problems today and after installing the update had to move everything back from the virus vault. A lot of unnecessary messing about.
My comment was simply to warn others of today's problems from Avast

Phill its to bad there slimey people who have nothing better to do then sit on there butts and make life miserable by excreeting there "expertiese" and creating viruses to see how much damage they can inflict it would be justice if there was a anti virus program that could send one back to the source that completly wipes out the hard drive and disables the owners pc forever.

I enjoy gardining I planted a patio garden (I live on the second floor) in some big pots Tomatoes and Peppers I wound up giving half of it away because I couldnt eat it that fast and what happened to you is really the pits its one thing to take a few tomatoes or peppers but to take the whole garden is really lowdown but dont let it stop you from planting another then the thief wins because he has robbed you of a greater posession faith and trust. all the best. smile

There are two more possibilities I will do some checking and contact the support centers and mention it along with facebook,Chordie to my knowledge dose not give out email addresses I know you can email someone from Chordie but  the other persons email address is not displayed Which narrows it down.

I recieved an email from someone I know to be a friend with a link so I follwed the link and all hell broke loose my anti virus program (Avast free) lit up like a christmas tree and nabbed the varmint I dont know how this was pullled off because I know the person who's name the email was supposed to be from and would never do anything like this so someone had to have hacked into one of the sites and obtained the email address of both the sender and myself and there are only two sites that we share in common and Chordie is one and the other is Facebook. This is not the first time nor will it be the last so a word of warning be careful which link you follow in an emai even if its from someone you trust.

Pete dont worry everyone is unique just keep doing your thing its what identifies you,as far as professional I made a living playing in bands my whole life so in that respect I am a professional but I am not in shape to be hauling gear anymore so I concentrate on composing music and producing videos smile
