Some of the older pics have long since had
their credits stripped... they keep getting
copied and recopied without...  And many pics were
created without sigs attached to them..

[ ...3 big beautiful butterfly pics snipped... ]

here's the header info on those 3 I posted (check back to put them together
with the pics) :)  They were all posted in rec.arts.ascii ages ago -- I dunno
if these are the authors or just posters...

I did not strip initials; the pics were posted as I found them -- I think that
artists should include their initials somewhere in the main body of their work
(like SPUNK111(JGS) does...) :)  I save entire posts as I get them, and when I
share them I use LIST.COM and highlight just the main pic(top to bottom) and
may miss attribution that occurs below the pic. . . (the best is when it
appears on the same row as the last line of picture, but over to the right)

I don't, as a rule, include attribution to the poster, as they are, just as
often, just like me(a collector/sharer, not artist)  :)

What would be really classy is if artists found a way to creatively work their
initials or other identifying mark(s) into their pictures... (maybe as part of
an overall design/layout?) (consistency would be key here) :)

The 3 butterfly pictures were posted by:

1. From: JUERGEN JAKUBOWSKI           Refer#: NONE
   Internet: SNO...@data-klo.mcnet.de
2. From: EDWARD CHILTON               Refer#: NONE
   Internet: ech...@gold.interlog.com
3. From: vli...@rcl.wau.nl (Meindert de Jong <^_^>)

Of course there are people who accidentally get the initials left out when
their *$@%#&^*@#!!! cut and copy won't work....<punchs monitor, hurts

(talking about sigs)

>(the best is when it
>appears on the same row as the last line of picture, but over to the right)

I've found that it is *very* easy to snip initials
when they are on the right side of the pic ...
people just highlight behind the sig to get the pic.   For that reason, I
usually sign the pics to
 the left of the image.   If people are going to
strip initials, they will have to make a conscious
effort to do so.

Anyhow, that's my figuring...

No, I mean when cut and copy won't work, and you have to copy it over by
typing it in yourself, and the initials are apart from the main picture and
get accidentally missed....never mind, I'm sure you don't care anyway.

I'm a bit confused...  just *how* can someone cut
and copy an entire ASCII picture and accidentally
omit 2 or 3 characters?  And those characters always
being the signature?  Seems somewhat selective...

Hey Sarah-- unfair dig at me...  I am a caring
person...    I thought you were talking about
a computer function of copying... not copying
the entire thing by hand (ugh!)... Now I
understand.
