Oh, you must mean it took you a very long time time to declare yourself 
as the author of this Dragon picture?

It has been in my Dragon collection for many years now, probably 
originally dated about 1992.

Those who posted these old copies must not have known that Ben 
Davidson was the original author since it has taken you until 1998 
for you to say so. You must be very very slow in all you do. 


But...you should to have put your name on the picture when you first made 
it circa 1992 because it is now in Dragon Collections all over the 
Net and the Worldwide Web without your name on any of the copies!

Too late, too late, I'm afraid.

why don't you try to make some new ASCII art instead of claiming to 
make a pic that someone has already created and posted?  Give it a try.
