I took a look especially on the 'mirc ascii' site...got a
lovely aladdin's lamp which is not credited which is joan's--and several
more that is not. I also peeked in a few 'ascii art downloads",
particularly mystic zip file, and alas the same thing--omissions of
initials or identity of original ascii artists. Lady graciously admits
errors or omissions are not deliberate, however, Im afraid the situation
of uncredited, altered or miscredited ascii art will always exist due to
files such as these being 'accepted' and 'packaged' in zips and
available for circulation.  It can start with one person and perhaps a
domino effect will occur--not to distribute uncredited art or 'hide' the
original artist's identity in the background.  Many a point/counterpoint
has been taken on these issues, so Im stepping down off of the podium,
but not too far from it :)

(ps...I thought for sure I saw the grim reaper with a whole body
somewhere and with credits)
