FLASH: Appology to Cheri and other newbies

[Sienna Design]

I feel I owe Cheri an applogy for the "attack" on her uploading the 3D cube

files to the FTP site.  I was to harsh in making my point and didn't

realize a lot of people do things to be helpful not realizing the

concequences of their actions.


My family lost millions of dollars to people who did something similar to

what you did (out of being helpful) I'm sure you all are aware of the

computer that gives you 3 chances to put in the correct password and if you

don't, the program keeps the card and you have to call the bank to get it

back.  Unfortunatley my father lost that design to people who dissected his

plan and took it to the patent company.  My father didn't protect his

product because he, like Nathan, trusted people not to be blatant fools and

steal an idea. He was wrong.


Just because a person didn't protect their work, doesn't mean they wanted

it taken from them.  Perhaps the Japanese company who designed that awesome

site didn't know Flash movies could be protected.  Perhaps my dad could not

afford the legal costs to protect an idea.. does that give anyone the right

to take an idea just because????



My point is this, if you don't have permission, don't take it.  Cheri, I

know you wanted to be a hero and I'm sorry for being harsh on you. I also

jumped to conclusions of your intent on taking the files.  I guess I just

wish people understood the damage you can do to someone when you take their

work without permission.
