Thanks for contributing

Thanks, they help to keep Sketchware Pro alive. It's better to have multiple people work on a project, for more ideas, less bugs (sadly sometimes more), and generally quicker development. Each (helpful) contribution that gets thankfully accepted, gets noted down in the "About Modders" activity. We'll contact you how to note your contributions to Sketchware Pro.
