  Copy/Foward the WHOLE message : Long press BESIDE the speech bubble.

I can't send photo! It says memory error or something!

Raf! Can you implement sending of apk, doc and other file types?

• We all know Rafalense had did a great job in allowing us to send mp3 and increasing the file size allowed to be sent. But my guess is that it will be hard for Raf to implement sending of other file types due to server-sided reasons. However, it's Raf, man! Who knows, only time will tell. Remember, Rafalense modded Whatsapp for theming purposes. Allowing us to send mp3s is already a bonus for us. Instead of asking him to implement stuff, why not we sit back and appreaciate what Raf had done for the community.
  
  Let's hope the official Whatsapp implements sending of different file types so that Rafalense will be able to mod it, such as sending bigger sized files.

Is Whatsapp+ illegal?

• No. Whatsapp+ is basically the official Whatsapp - decompiled - throw in awesome tweaks and features - recompiled.

How I can share / pick music ? I Click Share > Music but WA+ says 'there is no associated activity to perform action'. I installed PowerAmp or other music player

• Install 'Android Music Player' from market. Not every music player can pick music.

Everytime I open Whatsapp+, it checks for update automatically even if I'm on the latest version. Any way to stop it?

• Option > PLUS > 6. Other Mods > Uncheck 6.0 [Auto-Updates]

I have suggestions for Whatsapp+. Like Chatheads etc. Should I leave a comment on the thread?

• If it's related to themes and [provided] someone else did not suggest this previously, yes. Reply once and that's it. Else, no. Rafalense will try and go through your suggestions and act accordingly.

Can you please update Whatsapp+ more frequently?

• Rafalense is not your personal modder. He does this out of his own free time, out of his busy schedule. Give him time. I'm sure he'll release awesome updates. Be sure to to him so you can receive early release of Whatsapp+ before the others do.
