OK, I had read it before, but not completely understood. Language barrier implies I often have to read the posts at least 4~5 times before I can understand more or less. Do not forget too that I am a casual user, with no experience with other graphics nor photo software.

This all makes sense - it was explained in the link, thank-you to re-developing it. Nothing more to add.
