An excellent piece again JB. I'm always interested in seeing the process as a former wannabe artist myself. Can't draw anymore sinec I developed a touch of arthritis-not enough to be in constant pain but bad enough that I can't hold a pen or brush comfortably for long.

I'm sorry you were frustrated by people that couldn't wait to see-or read apparently. I understand your feelings but please don't hold back on doing something like this again way down the road sometime.

Maybe you'd like to tell me now why I shouldn't kick your miserable asses off the Forum?

Because I did not click on the link you said not to click on until the "you asked for it" came up when my cursor was near it.  To me, that meant either "it's ready" (and I think it was, because it was done and there were posts when I went to reply) or some kind of spoiler warning to something fun.  "Don't do this.  Ok, you asked for it."  Which did not indicate that something was not finished.  Instead it indicated to me that something was there to click on, if I were sure I wanted to see it.  Since it came from you, I wanted to see it.

Or maybe, this does not apply to me, since people had posted by the time I could, and I just think I was early.  I really do not know.  Were people viewing it before you could reply, before the final image was there?  My visit allowed me to see the final image.  Could I have viewed it too early and still seen the final image, or am I worried about offending you without doing that which offended you?

Serious joke:  did I just invent a new sweater color with that last line?  Please, JB, put me in my place if I did something wrong.  I would hate to do it again.

edited for spelling

Sorry, I just went and checked the times.  I viewed & posted 14 minutes after the first image was posted, 11 minutes after the last image was posted, and 7 minutes after JB posted his first comment.  I no longer think this applies to me.

Whew!
