Apology and reaction
« on: June 16, 2001, 12:35:00 AM »
OK, time for me to eat a little crow - a little one, braised in sour wine.  A few days ago I condemned an anonymously posted morph as being stolen from me.  Turns out it was an independently done morph by none other than Morphermore, which looked at first glance like mine, but when you put them side by side, obviously different.  So I owe Morphermore (now that he's identified himself as the morpher) an apology, and he'll get it:  I apologize for mistakenly accusing you of (anonymously) of stealing my morph (i.e. logo-stripping and reposting).
That said, I find Morphermore's reaction considerably overblown.  Remember he posted as "Anonymous" and without flagging his post as a morph - both violations of posting etiquette.  And I did not delete the post, it's still there.  Now I will outline Morphermore's reactions (which non-members will have missed since they're on his webpage) without further comment:  you decide.
St. Stephen...

Due to your post in the Forum, I will never again post anything I do to the User Gallery...[note by StS: in an earlier version, this read "for the cheapos in the User Gallery who don't pay their dues"]

And as far as the morph in question, you should take a closer look at yours, and then mine to see the differences, especially before you make these judgements...

June 15, 2001... Stephen: I added logos to all of my morphs... Hope this meets with your satisfaction?

[The logos in question are large rubrics splashed across the middle of each of his morphs. - StS]

So: anyone have any comments?

First of all... thanks for the retraction!

Secondly... Overblown???
think back to a not too distant past here at the BEA, and you should know why I posted to the User Gallery that way. But as I said, refraining from posting there will prevent any of those problems in the future.

Thirdly...
The logos on my work at my gallery here at the BEA was done for you St. S... That way, there won't be any confusion as to who did them. (I am working on a gallery that will be free to others who are not members of the BEA. Ask NotElvis?)

Morphermor

And by the way, it is MORPHERMOR! Not Morphermore...!
