There seems to be some discrepency as to who exactly the mascot of
TJA's mascot "Tabitha" belongs to, it's seems to have opened up quite
the can of worms. I can simply state the facts here. Originally back
in 2003, I asked James Hardiman to assist me in coming up with a
mascot for The Jab Arhcive's return. It was a colaborated effort
between 3 different people. Being Myself, James and Desiree. As far as
I was aware and from what the discussion between Jim and myself at the
time had brought was that she'd become property of the site.
Recent events have since stated differently. I've recently tried to
contact Jim, to no avail. This recent action has also brought upon
stress to V.Kyrie, who has done 99% of the work involving Tabitha
since her original conception.
She now feels she can not use Tabitha without some form of
litigation on the behalf of James or his fans. If indeed Jim would
like to lay claim to her, and since he was one of the original artists
to draw up some of her original concept work... Then I have no choice
but to go with his wishes and cease use of her. It truely sadens me
since she has become quite intertwinded with the page. If I am wrong
I'd love to be corrected, and Jim if you have a chance I'd still
really appricate a phone call just to finalize all of this. Thanks for
all fo your time Guys and Gals, I hope you had a great holiday..
