[Scriptoris] seeking painted charters for a library...

[Chiara Francesca Arianna d'Onofrio]

Please do not be offended by what I am going to say next.

I worked very hard to get the ones I have to make the Ansteorran
Scribes webpage for exactly this purpose. Why are you wanting to
redo what we have already created?

We went through a lot to get permissions to post those and were even
accused of stealing work from others when we did. We had to pull
some original scrolls down because they did not feel that we had the
rights to do that even though they filled out the release form and
sent it in themselves.

They claimed misunderstanding that the site would be password
protected for the use by the kingdom scribes only. No one ever said
anything about that nor was it ever in the works to do. Yes, I am
still upset about being accused of stealing work via a third party.
When I talked to the person they said they never did such a thing
but that they never signed permission to do so either. Sigh.

With all that in mind I have to caution you against doing this and
just link to what we have up already. Due to this accusation I
believe the links to the high res charters were also pulled and no
longer linked. But they were on the server for two years prior to
the pull.
