Re: chumblespuzz overlays?

Hi All,

Well, what can I say but sorry.

I've spent all weekend privately emailing all parties I've promised
something to and I hope all issues have been addressed.

I focused almost soley on producing CPOs for esoteric vector games,
primarily based on individual needs for fellow vector list members. I did
this as a way of trying to contribute back to the community that has help me
out on so many occasions in the past.

I spent a lot of time, effort and money trying to produce these CPOs. The
problems I've had with my printer have cost me a lot to try to resolve and
have been really frustrating. The thing that pisses me off is that it's not
because of my lack of ability to do the art - the problems have been out my
my contol.

In any case, I tried expanding my hobby into CPO production and it didn't
work out. I hope didn't piss too many people off with the way things have
gone. I've done my best, but in the end this is just a hobby for me. As such
it has taken a back seat to more pressing life issues.

If anyone has any open, unaddressed business with me, please email me at
chumblespuz@home.com. If anyone with better production capabilities is
interested in my artwork, please email me as well.

Thanks for your understanding,
-roy-
