[ ...3 big beautiful butterfly pics snipped... ]

here's the header info on those 3 I posted (check back to put them together
with the pics) :)  They were all posted in rec.arts.ascii ages ago -- I dunno
if these are the authors or just posters...

I did not strip initials; the pics were posted as I found them -- I think that
artists should include their initials somewhere in the main body of their work
(like SPUNK111(JGS) does...) :)  I save entire posts as I get them, and when I
share them I use LIST.COM and highlight just the main pic(top to bottom) and
may miss attribution that occurs below the pic. . . (the best is when it
appears on the same row as the last line of picture, but over to the right)

I don't, as a rule, include attribution to the poster, as they are, just as
often, just like me(a collector/sharer, not artist)  :)

What would be really classy is if artists found a way to creatively work their
initials or other identifying mark(s) into their pictures... (maybe as part of
an overall design/layout?) (consistency would be key here) :)

The 3 butterfly pictures were posted by:
