I realize that this is on your website. But you should let it out there instead of making sure that you get credit. Be Flattered that Fitz thought it was good enough to show the rest of us. To many people have Large Egos. Just because it is on your website does not mean that you did not get it from someone else Does it? Can you prove that? Can't we all just hug and get along?

It's ok Bonkers, he deserves to have his site linked and I'll make sure he gets that:)

Hi Bonkers,

I think I was entirely reasonable. I wasn't trying to start an argument. I just concisely outlined my concerns (in the other post) and fixed matters by providing the link.

Just because it is on your website does not mean that you did not get it from someone else Does it?

Yes it does. All the designs on my site are designed, photographed and written by the artists credited for the design.

The one above I designed, photographed step by step photos. photoshopped in a nice black background, sized for the web, added to a website, wrote instructions for photos, designed webpage. It's a fair amount of work.

The link is not about getting my ego stroked & stoked (I don't need to do that, I know I'm fantastic!). I spend time and effort putting up free designs so my site gets more traffic and occasionally someone will join the members section. The money from memberships pays for the bandwidth,time,software, balloons and coffee needed to keep the site going.

Now, do you want that hug or do I have to "prove" all the above to be true, first?

George
