That's why I put the Manual-stop at the top.  

BTW: I did a real dumb thing.  I had left the pointer to the background 
image pointing the file on my computer and did not notice it before I 
installed it.  No one was seeing it but me and I didn't know.  I did not 
intentionally leave the background grey.  I took a picture of the front of 
the hotel and faded it out (so text could be read over it).  The logo was 
to appear floating in front of the hotel.  I can't believe I left that link 
in.  If I did this for money I would starve.
