Maybe i didnt communicate well but i do hope this ... resonates the right meaning


Hi George/ Digger

Extending apologies in the matter, also have sent George and email of my intentions. This is just at the site and possibly a good recommendation, that we dont want to fall foul of all the traditional problems of communication prevalent in some "design companies".

I think we are all human beings and rationale at that and while Digger feels that Ollies design is not close by Ollie's comments its working off of a concept, the point i was making is that that is cool if just a mention to the other designer is extended, for me thats just a sign of mutual respect which i think avoids incidents like this. The communication aspect broke down and its amazing people such as George still exist and for that i commend you highly sir, im sure some of us have fallen foul of the pitch idea in the past only to see a very similar concept appear. Its a competition and this one has possbly been the most highly competitive on the site to date and between every one on the site it has been fun, so lets just keep it fun. I personally know that should the concept needed to be explored more by myselfor someone else, I would have said no problem.

In the case of Kitznthings, Digger, and i do hope im not speaking out of turn, I think that they are significantly different, yes on a same theme but each very very different. Wheras adding more of an angle and a font change is not really different. If you remember the adobe shop case a few years back where the picture had a few filters added and was still fell foul of the copyright laws. And this is only a competition with guys all submit something of which they have an emotional attachement to (plus egoes ;)) and a simple Do you mind if? would be nice.

Anyway water under the bridge, an Ollie I apologise and more reacted to your comment, for your information i have told George that it up to you guys as to whether you get the full amount or agree to have 250 donated to a charity, I totally understand that perhaps i was not privvy to a conversation and out of the loop but George has acted with the utmost integrity and again George i commend you.
