I purchased PP and the classifieds a while back. Just to upgrade the "security" fixes for the classifieds alone is going to cost me more money yet again and I've told PP that I'm not going to continue spending money on upgrades when there are less expensive alternatives out there.

PP is great if you want to continue spending hard earned money on upgrades. I continue to get emails about upgrading from this version to that version but it all goes back to cost. I don't mean this in a negative manner for the guy that is with PP, however, what gives here?

The model of "pay" and provide support seems to be gone. You'll pay.... pay and pay more until you get sick and tired of paying just as I've gotten sick of it. I'm currently looking for other alternatives for the PP because I upgraded to the "latest" version and lost all of the pictures in my database, although, they still exist in the folders ----- pretty amazing, huh? The upgrade wasn't so awesome nor seemless as I thought it would have been. It was 150+ megs of pictures and the only recourse I was told to do was to use previous backup. Explain that to all of my users who have put new pictures in there. No thanks.
