Yesterday I did something that I had never done before, and though inadvertent, has the same effect as if it were planned.   Titia, who is an Amazing fractal artist, had graciously posted numerous of her FE spots for downloading and tweaking.  Well, I set about toying with these gems, and as I tweaked one, would save it, and move on to the next one.  I must have spent hours doing this, then went back and looked at several of them.  Honestly, by that time, I had looked at so many, that I had no idea which was which or how many tweaks I had made. 

As I looked throught the tweaked images, I chose one, that I called "brings joy" and brought it into Photoshop for final processing.  I posted this image to R'Osity.  Later that day, I received an email from Titia, informing me that my image was only a small tweak of one of her spots that she had posted.  I immediately deleted the image and apologized to her.  However, I feel that this error also deserves a public apology as well.  Stealing another's work, whether accidental or intentional has the same effect on the original artist.   I have been fractaling for about 10 years, and have Never stolen another's image and clamimed it as my own, and I feel Very bad about this incident.

So, to Titia and to All, please accept this public apology for this error.  

Sincerely,
Joey
