      Default Double Dipping

      One of the hourly freebies today (no smoking ribbon) was one I'm sure was on here just a day or two ago. I did not down load it because of double dipping, I had downloaded it previously. Is that allowable to get points or just being tacky?

      Some times the designs are the same. If you want the point then you can redownload. It is up to you.

      I always download the design, just in case it wasn't the one I thought it was.
      and this way I get the points also. the designs are chosen randomly.

      I sometimes download them again, because I have noticed that sometimes my downloads don't always go right and then I have a bad one with an error. So if it is a design I really like I download it again just with a number 2 by it.
      If I stitch fast enough does it count as an aerobic exercise ? My husband said if I buy any more (fabric) (craft supplies) he would leave me - I'll miss him.

      Default double dipping

      What I discovered is if I already downloaded the design my machine asks "do you want to download this again" if I say "no" I still get the point.

      Though one of the things I have found is that some of the designs have very vague names that could be applied to other designs. If I am not sure if I have downloaded it before then I add an "a" to the end of the file name. when it comes to looking at my designs or unzipping ones later then I will check file size. If the size is the same it is the same file and I can delete it, if it not then I am relieved that I added in the ability to have more designs.

      I download to a special folder. If I don't have the design I put in the proper folder. If I do have it I just delete it. That way you'll always get the point and know where the design is. This works for me anyway
