[»] Thanks for including the source
by Sean Champ - Apr 10th 2005 17:06:39

I wanted to mention: It's appreciated that you've included
the XCF file, with the version-one release.

I suppose that it might seem explainable, if artisans would be
"fairly proprietary" about "their personal artisanal works".

With no disrespect about origins, however, and with due
credits made -- when so -- we can derive new images, after
existing ones -- more readily, yet, when there's some
techniques for image-working, known to oneself, and any
source images, available.

To address a concern: Certainly, plagiarism is a matter of the
person's own responsibility -- whether the responsibility
would be ignored, as with pretense/lies of origin, or
acknowledged, as with due credit, about how a work was
inspired/derived.

There are such practical things to artisanship -- known, but
when a person knows it; for a beginner, anything may seem
far less "mystifying", when "the code is right there".

As for technique, such can be, also, plain to regard, and
perhaps fairly plain to explain -- as with documentation, even
with "some simple notes"; it is, of course, the person's own
time to apply, however, whether for documentation or simply
towards the production of a nice work.

In any case, I like this image. The tonality of the work -- a
nice neutral grey, with no attention-distracting colors, splash,
or general "flash" -- nice; the curvilinear shapes, so broadly
composed, occurring, as they will , in the generally square
desktop space -- should be a nice, as amidst "the orthogonal
aesthetic of the typical computer box"; the whole
composition, overall, is definitely appealing.

Thank you.

    At this:

    > it is, of course, the person's own time to apply
    ## -- I'd simply meant to address the matter, generally.
    ## Upon reading back over it, I wonder if I might've written something, more like: You know, I notice that it's your time, to put howe'r you will -- not meaning the expression, like, "Well, there's nobody who seems to describe their background-image work, along with their background-image
    works, and so, I'll just gripe about it." ## That's a nice background, anyhow. ## - paragraph markers applied, because the parser on the text-box of this is seeming fairly b0rk3d
