Why am I forced to pay for this tiny upgrade?

Why am I forced to pay for this tiny upgrade from 1.0.1. to 1.0.3.

Why the heck do I have to purchase the PhotoPost Prp for over $100 to upgrade? When I try to download the 1.0.3 I am forced to renew my license.

This is a crock if I have ever seen one. I paid $40 for the original script and was garunteed updates for security reasons. Then PhotoPost comes along buys up VbAdvanced's gallery and prior customers loos in the end. All I want is the simple security patch and I refuse to pay you guys $100+ for that.

The current "Purchase Cart" has not been updated for vBGallery.

There has been almost a year that photopost has bought vBGallery. How longer should we wait for the site to be upgraded in order to sell vBGallery as well?
If you plan to never officially sell vBGallery and you just bought it to minimize competition, then you 'd better announce it instead of constantly lying to your customers.

Actually its been almost 9 months to be exact here. I do not think we need to bring up this kind of talk again since it is unmerited and accusations of lying above are uncalled for. We have made two promises both of which we have kept so there is nothing more to be said. We have supported the product and continued development of the product going.
