Thanks for your welcome. I'm orienting on your services and it looks like they might suite our purposes both in the fields and in bringing communication content over the supply chain to consumers and our supporters (as a campaigner the latter is my primary focus).

However I'm not in charge to decide so I dropped it in our West-Africa team. They will discuss it. I saw already some nice examples of market information systems like the one on cashew in Côte d'Ivoire.

Greetings Bram Verkerke

I actually thought I was posting the video to my page for myself and perhaps other members to view how I want to us MMS with FrontlineSMS. I didn't know it would post where it did. I am currently orienting myself to forum rules and posting requirements etc. Thanks for the feedback, I really appreciate it, and you being so prompt. I won't hesitate to learn or ask questions. I deleted the video.

Regards,

Darren
