The copyright question
Let me put this a different way: If any of you wants to become better known for your ascii art, what's the best way to make that happen? 1) Be protective of your creations and hassle people who don't ask permission/ include attribution? 2) Do everything you can to propagate the *art*, confident that people will grow curious about the authors eventually? Kangaroo made a tool that could have helped. But you've gone and screwed it up by your possessiveness... :^( -- "Tell me, Eutrapelus, which is the weaker person: he that yields to another, or he that is yielded to?" --Erasmus
