Hi!

I suggest you put your initial version up somewhere and
then start ask questions here.

It might be faster if many people submit hints than if
only one person gives you hints 8-}

If you want to have one person only, you can send me questions, but
note that sometimes it gets busy on my side, so sometimes it
will take time for me to answer.
