WOW! Big congrats!! It's about time some of our great artists here started to get some recognition I know just how you feel - I had a similar thing a couple of weeks back when I was contacted by Curious Labs to use one of my images at Siggraph next month :-)

WOOHOOOOoooo!!!!!!! 
Congratulations TJohn... A very worthy image to have on the cover of Sience Fiction Weekly. And a Bryce image no less. That is really cool.
I concur with Drawbridgep..."Carry on bragging. Anyone who gets published deserves it."
Way to go.

I don't have a site yet, Stephen, but I have been thinking about it.
