Some of us just create images for fun. For me, this is a hobby and not a source of income. I don't sell anything that I create and so far have not had anything I've thought good enough or original enough to even post in free stuff. If I saved every image/.pz3/.vob I ever created, I would need a seperate room just to store the backup cd's!! However.....if I enter a contest, I do just as you suggest, in case there are any questions as to method used. There is always the possibility of "sour grapes", especially in contests. There will always be someone who "pushes the envelope" or outright violates a rule or copyright. And there will always be some who simply like to stir things up by accusing others of doing something wrong. Sometimes it's hard to discern what is really going on.
