And here's the Handango link (http://www.handango.com/PlatformProductDetail.jsp?siteId=1&jid=C8B1E7D52C2DB9B2283DB8E88A449X97&platformId=2&productType=2&catalog=0&sectionId=0&productId=40963) where you can find the FREE XDA Skin Chooser from DesignLab. The link on the yorch.net site doesn't seem to be working.

Gee, that blue christmas one sure looks familiar (http://www.mcdeb.com/MT/archives/000330.html#000330). Oh well. I don't mind much. Could always be a coincidence I guess. And even if it's not, I can share. :)

you know, funny enough, I didn't get it from you, I got it from a greeting card website, If I find the link I'll send it to you.

Thanks anyway, I didn't do it with bad intentions, If you want me to remove it I will. I didn't know it was yours.

No problem, yorch. I got the image from one of the royalty-free cd's that I purchased earlier this year. Some of the images on that cd are rights-managed, but I don't think that one is. No harm done, since that image is not "technically mine". It is a beautiful image, so let's let everyone enjoy it.

Best of luck with the site. :)

UPDATE: Yep, just checked. It is a royalty-free image from photographer Spike Mafford. Distributed by PhotoDisk thru Getty images (image number NA008432). Cost of the image alone in the smallest resolution is $49.95 USD. The CD with all 333 images is $499. Here's a quick definition of "royalty-free": Royalty-free pricing is based solely on the size of the product you need, not the specific use. You don't have to pay any additional fees on a use-by-use. Once you purchase a royalty-free product, you may use it multiple times for multiple projects without paying additional fees. When I do not use my own original art, I usually use royalty free images (when making them available for sale). It's fine to use comped sized images for free offerings, and you rarely need to pay anything for rights to those.

Sorry for the long explanation, but I hope someone finds it educational. :)
