Copy write info: As you all know that this is copy write to me (ziggy aka Donna). However, I know that there are a lot of thieves out there, and I just want you all to know that you have my permission to put it on your site, however, yes there is a catch or two, please do not claim it as your own, do not alter the graphics and do not remove my e-mail address. You did not do this tut and therefore have no clue on what problems may arise and by removing my e-mail address people will not be able to e-mail me if they need help. I spent a lot of time doing these tutorials and writing them, and I'm asking for only a few things from you. I think I'm being more than generous, as most tut writers would not do this. So please abide by my few rules. You may also use a text link to these tuts if you like. Thank you. |
