A few days ago I checked in on the new WoW site. Surprise surprise....A photo of one of my pieces from many years ago was the Photo of The Day! How could that be? I hadn't posted any photos. I scrolled down and another surprise! It was credited to someone else! Now not only was the piece mine so was the photo. I had posted it on WoW in 2003. I checked in my files and yes the original is there. The piece is Buckeye burl and has some very distinctive color and figure so there is no doubt that the piece and the photo are mine. I even posted the same photo here on SWC a couple of years age when I was posting some oldies. Herm, the boss at WoW posted my 2003 post to prove to any doubters that it was mine.
Herm has contacted the guy. I don't know where it goes from here.
Am I disturbed about this? Yes I am....very. I guess I should be flattered that he picked my piece out of the thousands of pics on WoW
