>All new magazines, such as GQ and Time now give credit to the photographer and artist used in the pictures. SNK has their web site on the inserts, and they did not create any of them. They were all done 3rd party, OUTSIDE SNK. So NeoGeoFreak does the same. That way there is no confusion as to the origins of the insert and if it's an oriignal "SNK" print or not. This saves people from asking or having doubts.>>

That is very true. The photographer's & artists always recieve credit. Having worked as a stripper, I wouldn't have minded being given credit.
Never did, probablly never will. Although Ive seen the owners of printing
companies get credit for my work. The way of the world I suppose.
As far as people thinking these are scans of original SNK's, I didnt think of that actually. Had I, I would not have taken off your url.

<< Perhaps it was the "standard practice" thing to do, but not the "right" thing.
I think Gui Long may have the "right" & "fair" compromise. Would the members of NGF feel appeased if I were to place on the page
with the scans credit that they were designed/created by NGF?

>>That would be nice and a friendly start. It would be nice if you said
"These are scans of the NeoGeoFreak inserts" or something like that.
But regardless, the NeoGeoFreak inserts should be put online in their ORIGINAL form,
with the "NeoGeoFreak back box" in tact and with our URL.
We've always had much respect for your artwork, and we never talked down about them. Even to this day, we say we like most of them. Some better than others,
and you should follow the genre coloring standards. Other than that, we enjoy and fully support your work.
There is a place for your work and for the work from NeoGeoFreak. We serve 2 different purposes. Let's try and remember that.
thanks for the support,
NeoGeoFreak>>

I will add credit on the scans page as to their design/creation/origin.
As for putting the original scans up, well I'm afraid thats all there is.
I saw no purpose in keeping old copies. I only have them as they are.
In 20meg and 80-150meg versions. However, If you wish to send me your
digital files; Id be happy to Host them for you, completly unaltered.
As for rescanning them, the only ones I myself own are the
MoneyPuzzleExchanger & Magician Lord.
