Attention - Special Notice!

For the past 5 years, I've been writing free Halloween tutorials for my website. When I say "free", I mean that anyone can look at them and use them as guides to make their own decorations. One of my decorations in particular seemed to be popular among halloween enthusiasts; the head-in-a jar illusion.

Alas, after 5 years of being nice, I am forced to remove them from the internet because of someone else's greed. Early this morning (Oct. 15, 2008) I discovered that someone has copied my pages (as well as a few hundred projects from other people) to a dvd and is selling them on ebay for $20.

I contacted ebay about it to have the dvd removed, but the damage is done. It's not that I don't want to share information, but I'll be damned if someone else is going to make money on my work. I'm also planning on contacting some of the other people who's projects have been unknowingly been sold, just to let them know what's going on.

So the old adage is true. One bad apple does spoil the crop. And this bad apple spoiled the fun for everyone. So for at least the time being, the projects will be removed until I figure out what my next step is.
