The 'final' version of the castle in my eyes was the one with the list at the
end of who contributed what. Yes, if someone is going to use the picture for
something they are far more likely to remove the list than to remove the
initials, but it is something between initials added and nothing. I would
think many places, including specific ascii art sites would leave the credits
list on at the end. I havent seen any other art using a list but it seems the
most sensible way to do it to me.
Btw, I've seen a version of the castle on an ascii art site with the list
removed, but initials of people on the list added to it. I'm quite happy with
that...as long as its my initials first ;)
(that wasn't an argument was it? ...gotta be careful - wouldn't want to see
this hand crafted document mercilessly slain by the terrible delete key ;)
