hrrm,
Hey, I was just looking at the big dragon art page:
http://icecube.acf-lab.alaska.edu/~fxdlk/DragonArt.txt
when I came across this picture:

I don't know who the heck Alex is but I drew this, a while ago in fact,
actually if there is anyone on the newgroup who used to be on a long time ago
they can probably vouch for me, and valkyrie almost definitely can cuz
this is one of the first things I drew and I sent it to her to ask her
what she thought. NOt one of my best, I know, but I would still rather
get credit for my bad artwork than have someone else steal it, not that
there is anything you guys can do about it, I'm just venting steam
