I beg the indulgence of the group for my continuing offtopicness.

Okay, let's assume that the image in question is an edited version of an
LRNJ screenshot.
Your parenthesized statement is factually correct. That image is not
*currently* part of your site. I will take your word for it that the
image is not part of your game. That does not negate the fact that it
was on your web site at a point in the recent past, and that you
represented it as a screenshot.
I've noticed that you are being careful to avoid actually lying
directly; i.e., when I originally mentioned your "screenshot", you said:
> I'm not sure what you're referring to. No artwork in my game or on my
> web-site was taken from LRNJ.
Now, at the time when you posted that, it was true. You had already
removed the offending screenshot, so it wasn't on your site. So, it
would seem that you want to be an honest person.
However, I don't seem to recall you ever denying that you were the
author of the screenshot, or stating that the screenshot was never on
your site. So, how about it? Would you care to deny that the image in
question was originally posted on your site? Or would you like to admit
that you made a mistake? I suppose a third alternative would be to
simply accuse me of creating the image myself. If you had just admitted
you made a mistake to begin with, I'd be back to lurking, by now....

This point doesn't really relate to your game as such. I'm accusing you
of dishonesty; specifically, representing as a screenshot of your game,
an image which was, in fact, an altered screenshot of a different game.
Having not played your game, I do not consider myself qualified to
comment on it directly.
Would you care to defend yourself with a direct statement, or shall we
go on playing word games?

On the contrary, you give yourself too much credit. It isn't an
important point at all. But I do find this exercise moderately amusing.
I look forward to your reply.
Jimmy
