Greetings All! My CC account has been idle for a few years - moving/renos/RL stuff - but I'm back and eager to brush up on the rules and dive back in! Several things have changed since I was on last, and I have a couple of questions... I tried searching for these topics already to no avail. Please f...

Thank you, jak! I tried using the search function on the forum, but searching for words like "usage" and "edit price" gets ZILLIONS of results! LOL! Now, though, I'm confused. I thought that now that I had sold it for usage and it has been published on the web out there somewhere...

Thanks JD!

I bought a product that is both the glue and the clear finish. Decoupage...stuff. Don't remember the name, but it was just for decoupage and I got it at a craft store.
