    Hi, I'm adding my support and would appreciate yours. Please don't use
    the dreaded s-word. CZcams is coming down hard and spamifying them.
    They may also deprecate the addition by making it not count -- the
    addition remains but is removed from your totals! I lost over 130 on
    Saturday, so please do be careful. Also, it's a good idea to go slowly,
    watch a minute or two of someone's video (muted if you wish) before
    hitting the like and then adding them. We have your back! Best of
    luck! 'I am a creator'!

      Thanks for the support and tips. On the positive side, I've found a lot more interesting channels to support that I didn't realise had existed so pleased to give my support to them. :) You have a lot of interesting tech and software videos so looking forward to checking those out! Definitely do more videos on classic camera equipment!
