Thanks Raven. I just saw your post today, but was checking out the Amazon apps last night along with reviews and # of downloads after doing a search on "free apps". I'm still on the fence with this Nextbook. What I like is the 8" portable size and it's easy to use. What I don't like is not being able to get a wifi connection anywhere I've been so far (I live in a very populated area). Two (inside) places I tried to get wifi had secured internet in which the people didn't know their password. I couldn't even pick it up at 2 busy shopping center parking lots. Wasn't too happy about that as I don't expect to have to hunt down a Mickey D's or Starbucks to get wifi. The reviews on HSN haven't been too favorable on this tab as buyers can't get Netflix or the Android market; neither of which bothers me any. Reviews aren't shown on HSN any longer since the unit is sold out. The battery life, especially browsing, isn't good and that's something that's important to me. So, I'll be testing it out for a few more weeks. I really want it to work for me since I do like most things about this tablet. I was tempted to get an IPad, but prefer the 7-8" smaller tabs, and I can do without the monthly data plan along with the ridiculous price tag.

Thankyou Ravencajun Quote: I would also suggest that you download it from the actual download site instead of your windows updates. I will provide the link, select your language and your version which is 7 sp1and 64bit. If you prefer you can also download it then go into safe mode and install, less things running so less to interfere. Unquote. I had downloaded IE 10 from MicroSoft's Official Update site. I saw it in their list of downloads for my system. It is not imperative that I have IE 10 right now, so I shall wait. Your suggestion for switching to the Safe Mode to sort out problems is a good one. My main concern was that I may have a bad copy of IE 10 (compressed download file) somewhere in my computer and I'd like to get rid of it, but I don't know its file name or where it may reside. Again, thanks for your reply.

I've learned how to do screen shots! Mine is totally different than yours, Raven! This is what I see when I open the app: Coloring: I really can't tell that the color wheel does much of anything, except change the color of whatever pencil I'm using. There isn't a gradient option or choice anywhere that I can find. The circle icon in the center above resets the colors, so you can start all over again. The icon second from the left is to choose save type, but the save in "photos" choice doesn't work, it will say it's saved it, but it won't be there. There is nowhere to choose a background, either. The 'share' icon always says there is an error. Actually, I had thought maybe it didn't load properly, and had uninstalled then reinstalled it a couple of times before I posted that 'update' yesterday. After seeing your screenshots, I think it is just a totally different version. That's okay, I'm enjoying it, just a bit disappointed I don't have some of the choices you do. Now I need to go back and correct the mistake I didn't see until I posted the picture here. Rusty

Some of my earlier research indicated that higher light lead to larger in diameter stems and overall a healthier plant. In your example, it looks like giving it more space also contributed to the size of the one in terra cotta. I have two of those Raven ZZs also because who can resist them? I have them in different light conditions also. The one in lower light does get longer more narrow stems.
