Now plz listen here, Mike...
the thing is that this case whent on for about 10 days the first time
were people accuseing ME for copying and art theft..... it all started
out with just one person doing what you did. Finding my VCL-Archive and
thinking that "this might be a copy od J.M. Hardiman's Des' Lee".... It
took me 10 long days to clear it all out with people and making the
realize that i created Jade before I knew anything about J.M.
Hardiman...
And even Des gave me a *thumbs up* for my art telling me that she didn't
consider it art theft just because I desided to draw a lizard....
the only thing we are trying to do now is to stop any posibility of that
happening once more now that we had finished that rather long
discussion....
No one is mad at you (well... I got a little angry at first.... But now
that I can see how you feel, I know that you feel the exact same way I
did when I got accused of art theft by ALOT of people from this
group...)
I can do no more then say to you that if you understand our situation
there should be no more to talk about....
Just relax for a second and cool down.....
