just to let everybody know are some negotiation with Jack Martin
of Cool Piranha we have come to a satisfactory outcome to my
grievence.

Thanks to all who chipped into the debate and to the issues it raised

Hi Stephen
Had a few days off, but Jack's filled me in. Sorry I wasn't around to reply to your posting.

However, on that topic:

The download idea for John's site has been discussed *at length* by myself and Cool Piranha. Basically, the ASP programmer who coded much of the site didn't think we wanted the images downloadable, which is why they're not.

Then there was a lot of discussion on copyright and, while John's generally not too upset if he sees his images everywhere, the men in suits at CP weren't so keen. I'm still discussing downloadables with them, and hopefully it's a situation that will be resolved over the coming months.

The only other way of obtaining the images would be to drag them off the page onto the desktop and then hack the code to convert the file type. And it's an awful lot of trouble to go to!
