Why do we have to start hate wars?
I read in this group somebody (I'll look it up in Deja News) quoted
something like:
"Miss Kitty has an objection to posting with initials..."
also
"Miss Kitty has posted a picture with initials, realised, removed them,
and later posted without initials".

This second statement I shall check VERY carefully.  Not now, 'cos I
don't have the time.

You didn't directly deny it, so I assumed it was true.  You posted the
kitten in a hand by ROW only days after the group had discussed the fact
that it DID belong to him.  That was rude.  I don't accept that you
"didn't notice", because you obviously, like myself, read everything
which comes through this ng.  You seem to be arguing that if you only
knew who the pictures belonged to, you would post them with initials.  I
find 18 cats/kittens without a single known author hard to believe when
you read everything that comes through the group.

You have proved how spiteful you are now, and frankly, bloody rude.  I
don't want to start a war here.  How about this:  I'll find out who
every picture you have belongs to.  I will explicitly tell you to whom
they all belong.  After that, I expect to see the postings with the
initials.  IF you ask the authors (and I will check, because you have
REALLY pissed me off), and they don't mind not having the initials, that
is fine.  If you honestly don't know who they belong to, fine.  Only
ask, and I'll find them, even if no-one else cares about this.

Finally, I would just like to justify my indignation.  One of the ways I
define art is this:

Can you recognise the author/painter/sculptor/etc. by their style, when
you see a new piece of work.  If you can, it is art.  I can mostly tell,
now, whether b'ger, jgs, vk, ejm, hjw, etc. drew a picture, so I regard
it as art.  I feel that initials should be left [in the absence of
specific aproval by the artist].  No ego trip.  Just respect for the
artists.

Anyone still not understand where I am coming from, I have one thing to
say:
"READ THE FAQ!!!!!".

CU.
Andy.

Ditto to everything.

I made the crack about the objection... something like this...

"Miss Kitty has a moral objection to giving artists proper credit."

Could everyone get off Miss Kitty's back? She's explained that the 
credits weren't there when she found the pictures. As far as I know, she
has never claimed any art as her own, and she has never taken a pic off
this newsgroup and snipped the credits. 

I'd say: Miss Kitty, just post what you have, and when someone tells you
the author of a certain piece, just add the initials. You could add a
disclaimer to your posts saying:

DISCLAIMER: This is not my art, if you see a piece of art without the
            proper credit, please mail me so I can add the initials.

Greetz,

AMEN!  Miss Kitty *has* said that she doesn't remove initials (and those of
you who say she's done so, consider that she may have the same picture in
different files, with and without initials?)  She may or may not have a
*very* large collection to try and compare all pictures with their authors,
but it is still unreasonable to ask her or anybody to just 'know' who the
author is--I believe she doesn't get most of them from our group anyway (did
she say that? I think so)...

Can we please stop yelling at her now?  If you want to help her attribute
her files do so, but in any other event, don't criticize her for not being
able to recognize every pic on the net!

Some people simply do not put their name or initials on their
artwork by choice. I know of at least one current regular poster who
chooses not to do so. Do you always append their names if you save
their pictures ?

I wish I had a dollar for every picture I have added the author's
name to by getting their name from their message header.
Most people will not go to that trouble and I do find it exceedingly
tedious...  -A.N.Other- ( yawn ) Zzzzzzz.

I have to wonder just how much deliberate stripping occurs...I have
a feeling it is minimal although there are always people who will
grab things to put in their Sigs and the oddball who claims a picture
to be their own work.

Dear Miss Kitty.

I got a kitten signature from you and don't
have your "official" initials to put on it
so you get the credit   <G>

I don't know what all the arguing is about,
anybody with some time to spend and a keyboard
to punch can put together ascii art -- 

I'm on YOUR side miss kittycat   :-)

Perhaps-- however- you wouldn't believe all the
email I get from people who have tried to make
an ASCII picture  and CAN'T do it !!!

Er, let me rephrase that... you wouldn't believe all
the email I get from people who have tried to make
a "GOOD" ASCII picture and CAN'T do it.

So, I don't think that your statement is true.

I didn't draw the cat, it's by Mike, who made a whole
series of Nika cats...

Copy of the old - OLD message where I found Nika...

Yes folks, it's Nika!! Yes, ladies and gentlemen, my cat Nika has
been meticulously drawn on my computer. Now, the experts' many hours
of drawing are paying off for you! Now you too can see the one and
only Nika in this special edition USENET post. Here it is, the
moment we've all been waiting for...

 Nika is sleepy

Do you like them? I'll post back when I draw some more. I already
made an animation with Nika, and I'll post that soon. "Nika stalks
the mouse" would make a nice sig pic or sig blank (hint, hint). If
you're wondering, I really do have a cat named Nika.
