Hi Amy - hope you're feeling a bit better.

I've only just discovered this page, as a result of an unfortunate misunderstanding with Yossarian Prefect. I was startled to see the smiley - fish you designed for my 'Post' column on his page, and I thought he must have fishnapped it from one of my columns! He explained that he'd got the smiley - fish from here.

Obviously I can't be possessive about a smiley - fish that you designed, and designed superbly. I love the way you represented me so aptly by making the smiley - fish look plump and grumpy. smiley - winkeye

However, if you are going to invite people to copy that smiley - fish on to their Personal Spaces, perhaps you should add a warning explaining the significance of its colour scheme. Researchers who copy the smiley - fish might be a bit puzzled if they suddenly find themselves being taken for Bradford City supporters by English soccer fans.
