That’s a good tip, i know there are many people out there having trouble with this issue and looking for such explications. You should consider talking about file types and how are they working too, you seem to be qualified for such an article. There are more and more new file extensions appearing these days and they can be very confusing, they even make me feel frustrated sometimes.
Thanks for the tip. That was always something that bugged me. I’m going to be an uploading fool tonight!
