I'm also having problems. I get a message that says "Your card will not accept a charge at this time". It is the same card I use to buy books at Amazon.

Tried to buy one, but I just get a message that says "Your card will not accept a charge at this time". I know my card is OK, it is the card I use to buy books from Amazon.

I'm Mexican and live in Mexico City. Although there are people in Mexico who like to read books, I'd say they represent less than 5% of the population. When I'm invited to somebody's home, one of the first things I tend to look at is the bo

I guess this will create a large market for assets which can be used within Source Filmmaker. Maybe Valve should open an asset store, like Unity's Asset Store, where you can browse & buy assets directly within Source Filmmaker.

That's what I wanted to say: don't read the news. I've found out that I'm much happier when I don't read the news, in particular news about politics. On the other hand, news about science & technology sometimes do make me happy.
