From my AP center...
OK...YOU come up with a thread that you intend to act as a beneficial tool that the whole community to contribute to, then have some JOHNNIE-COME-LATELY copy the inspiration behind that thread and then claim it as his own and see how it makes you feel. IF ChrisWuk wants to contribute, thats great....he found some great tools and I'm more than happy to concede that. They would have made a GREAT addition to the thread that was ALREADY started LONG before he posted his thread. Instead, he choose to take someone elses idea and pass it off as his own in a manner that doesn't leave room for the rest of the community to contribute. So much for honor and good manners.
To add insult to injury he posts a link to his copy-cat thread to the original thread, therefore tearing down what WAS a good concept....the people of AO coming together and pooling resources in a way that benefits us all. Sorry Chris, but I consider that to be a low blow that was undeserved and VERY selfish on your part. If you disagree, then by all means feel free to post, PM or take whatever action you deem appropriate.

excuse me, i spent a long time getting each of these tools, trawling thru loads of web sites looking for the best tools and live links.
You had posted FOUR tools, and NONE of them were on MY list, grow up man, its because of ppl like you that i dont have any greenies, the ones i work for are taken away by power hungry selfish ppl like you !!
