  1. Hi there-
    So, I’m just curious as to which laptop/computer/tablet that you use. I have an iPad but the memory isn’t large enough to store software, and I’m hesitant about getting a laptop as well because of this reason. What is your top choice?

    Thanks in advance!

    MJ

  2. When you have the graphics downloaded from the 7 day trial period and make printables from those graphics, are you able to sell the printables that you made with those graphics? or are there copyright issues with that?
