I don't know about whether or not she is egotistical, maybe a better
word would be presumtuous. The simple fact is that the picture was
taken of work done by Andi. The deisgn was notated as best it could
be given that she had seen the picture and saved it some 2 years
earlier.

I am still confused about the legal right to protect a drawing of a
fern. Had the picture been of this Kree-person's work and had Andi
been passing it off as hers, that would be one thing. This is not,
however, the case. The WORK was done by her....how could she have
know that Kree held a legal claim to the design of a fern?



: whooooaaa there tiger!
: could you refresh our memories about what this is about?
: I copied and pasted the link referenced below and got to some
: geocities page...could you cite the page in question please?
: I seem to remember it was Kree who posted this. She is far from
: egotistical, nor is she launching a jihad against you. She is
simply
: standing up for her leagl right, at least in the US, to not have

it.
