Hey Jean-Charles M., happy July 1st! 

 

Keep in mind that due to security reasons I can't access the shared link you've provided. 

 

I've also removed it, since I wanted to avoid it from potentially gathering too much traffic. 

 

When replying back to me here, you should have a camera-like icon that'd allow you to attach your screenshots here. Can you give it a go?
