I decided to copy our conversation on email here as it pretty much covers what we talked about. I just want to post this here to clear the air.

Aw sh*t. Now I feel bad. Sorry, I came off too harsh. I didnt' realize it was you Eric. I have been under fire with my company lately with people stealing my work so I guess this is a sensative issue with me. If you want to use it have a blast. (How about a link back to my site if you have a links page or anything it?) In other cases I have made some kick ass graphics/scripts and BOOM I see them on some other companies site!!! People just don't give a sh*t anymore (No saying this about you) I now have to spend $$ on an attorney just to protect the work I have done with my business.
I also have a problem with people putting *My* companies (Federally registered Corporation I might add) name in the header of the browser even though their company name is some lame ass thing like "BFD Web Design" but in the header they put "Connecticut Web Design - by BFD"
Is this why you have not answered my Ground Contol
>questions.
Oh heck no. I'm not petty like that, I get lost in emails sometimes as I run several sites and get about 300emails a day private and/or list related. Sorry about that, what was the question?
I again apologize for the tone I set, you can use it if you like. The only thing I ask is if you end up selling stickers or something and make a lot of money off of my design. Toss me a few bucks.
Jay,
Connecticut Web Design
