I made two pts donations last night for angelshares, all went well and I could see my donation address in http://www1.agsexplorer.com/ (http://www1.agsexplorer.com/) Today morning I made another donation but this time I could not find my donation address.
I have 7 confirmations so far and this tx ID: b29dc9bb9f5efd7fac6f1dda8e6fc1cea137690e1dcfb4e4d5a863f5113e5314 I checked the tx ID here https://coinplorer.com/PTS/Transactions/b29dc9bb9f5efd7fac6f1dda8e6fc1cea137690e1dcfb4e4d5a863f5113e5314 (https://coinplorer.com/PTS/Transactions/b29dc9bb9f5efd7fac6f1dda8e6fc1cea137690e1dcfb4e4d5a863f5113e5314) but I can't see my wallet's address unless I click this address "PgN7PNdAiNRH6qCEVPoDy4Ck6VT7SzdoCX" this address also apears as the donating address in http://www1.agsexplorer.com/ instead of my own address.
Im a little confused, is anything wrong here?

It seems to be ok :D besides my "normal address" it returned some more including PgN7PNdAiNRH6qCEVPoDy4Ck6VT7SzdoCX
Also I just saw this in http://www1.agsexplorer.com/ags101 (http://www1.agsexplorer.com/ags101)
I can't find some of donations in my address lookup. (Change Address)
Other variance of this question might be:
My donation is credited to someone else's address!
My donation is missing!
Many "missing donation" worries of this kind is due to being unfamiliar with the 'Change' concept of Bitcoin or ProtoShare. Your wallet contains many addresses, some are created by you, some are created by wallet itself. Everytime you make one transaction, say you have address A (contains 10BTC), you make 1BTC donation to AGS address(B), the transaction protocal is like this:
(input) Destroy 10BTC in address A
(output) Create 1BTC in address B
(output) Create 9BTC in address C (C is a new address created by your wallet)
Address C is the change address.
The next time you make a transaction, the amount might be deducted from address C, which will be credited AGS.
This is sometimes confusing for general wallet users. Because the behind-scene action is done automatically. When you think you made 2 donations from same address, they actually are not. In the example above, address A and C are both credited AGS.
Every donation made by you will be credited to your address(es) in your wallet. So don't worry. As long as you control your wallet, they are not going anywhere.
