Its too bad about this sort of thing happening... though, I can
easily understand why the page and graphics WERE target... the layout
and design is above par... beautifully done...
Fully admit (and credit) Gonzi on my page when I used his radio
image, though, and god knows it was easy enough (to 'borrow' AND
credit him)... in my own letter to the crook in question, I was kind
enough to include a copy of the html code from the REAL Squarepusher
page which credits gonzi (the little link to his email and such) I
figured that cut / paste might be as easy as 'SAVE FILE AS' and he
might actually use it (he used enough of gonzi's other code, why not
this bit?)
I guess, though, in the same manner, I must admit that I understand a
bit more why g@warp didn't want us all distributing the ae_radio file
and feel a bit like a hypocrite at the moment...

company =(
