nice pics, the snowboarder kicks ass. but if you were to draw a really sweet picture (on paper) that
took you hours upon hours to do, and i came along and slapped some tissue paper over it and traced it,
which is more valuable? we have the exact same picture, but one was created in your mind, and the
other i just "connected the dots."  that's kinda the logic behind the "tracing is for weenies"
statement.

there's a really kewl way to trace in microsoft word,  you make a bunch of spaces, then insert a
picture. you set the pictures text wrapping to none and its order to "behind text" then all you gotta
do is type over it.  uh wait um _how_would_i_know_that... :)
