Some people might enjoy taking your flash intro you designed for the mirc
rainbow website, alter it for their own use, get rid of your copyright,
without permission.  And goodness knows there are enough warnings on the mirc
rainbow website about taking anything on it without permission. *wondering
why*  Too bad the same courtesy doesnt apply to the ascii community's
websites--'its only ascii art'.  Just take, alter, do whatever without asking
if its ok.  Would it be ok to take one of the files on the mirc site for
download, strip all the color codes on text pictures not drawn by them, get
rid of the caption enhancements and replace 'colored by' to DRAWN by--oh and
'hide' any reference to whoever wrote the macros to play the picture.  Lets
not forget how its so improper and downright theft to alter a mirc file. 
Interesting isnt it? Since you obviously promote your business via the web,
you might want to share copyright food with the mirc rainbow owner--maybe
not, its only a web design service you provide.

regards,
MariaLana
