Thanks very much for all your input Terri, Julie, John and Michele. Hope I wasn't too much of a cry baby here. If it is any help for people that may be in my situation, one advice I found in print somewhere said something like this: don't get bogged down by setbacks because it is a waste of time. Try to be more creative on coming up with alternative solutions or accept the situation and move on to something else. Easier said than done but with practice it gets better.

For anyone interested, I will follow Michele's suggestion to post a topic regarding my initial approach to the Charity Donation that didn't go anywhere under "Business Side of Art" section of this forum. I'm looking forward to learning from your input and hope that someone else may avoid the mistakes that I may have made.

Just want to say that it is so cool to be able to look up member's bio now that I've gained permission to do so by joining the forum.
