Dear Catharina, This is a very sad thing. Why didnt you just say Opps, I ment COMMERCIAL instead of NON-COMMERCIAL instead of joining this thread and attacking me while lying about what your license said when I created the post. Now youve changed the license, attacked me and lied. Do you think no one else has read, or has a copy of your web page? I was all set to dispute your post which was directly opposite of what the license on your site said. Then I thought I better have another look and I see that you changed it from non-commercial to commercial. (By the way, in your haste to change it you misspelled artistic as asartistik, you should have left that alone.) Im sorry for you Catharina, I had no intention of being funny or unkind to you. You are a wonderful talent. I just thought it was very expensive for non-commercial use. You could have handled this so differently. Now you have shown your lack of integrity how could someone believe the rest of your license? You can just change it at will. If this was an error on your site you should have thanked me for pointing it out. If I were wrong I would be the first to admit it. I think you owe me a public apology. I sure there are many ways to check the validity of this. For anyone interested, the following is Catharinas web page saved as a text file on February 7, 2002. What you Get?
