The Henna Mehndi Webring does kinda suck... they aren't very good
about maintaining the site, and don't respond to emails often... I
tried twice to join to no avail. That sucks about your graphic...
maybe i'll write them an email on your behalf, if i ever find the
time to do all the other 1,001 things i need to go do now (can you
say "busy weekend"?)....

: Recently a whole slew of sites have been added to the Webring list,
: which I was looking forward to, since I enjoy trolling new henna
: sites -- but to my amazement MOST of the new sites are among the
: worst sites I've seen, some of them not even directly related to
: henna and OTHERS are just poorly done.
: But imagine my surprise to find that I too have been ripped off by
: BLUE LOTUS henna. They used one of my personal graphics (a picture
: based on some Arabic lettering a friend wrote for me) as a
background
: to their home page (it used to be the background on one of my
: pages). I wrote to them over a week ago asking them to credit me
and
: provide a link to my page or remove it and they have not dignified
me
: with a response.
: SO IT'S NOT JUST TEACUPS!!!
: I'm rather disappointed that the webring is not doing any kind of
: quality control in the sites they choose to have on the ring.
