Black Hippy Chick

This is a blog partially about my life, partially about my philosophy, and partially about whatever I can throw in. Just don't take it too seriously. I am an evolving individual with evolving thoughts and ideals. You will see contradictions here becuase I believe in honesty and objectivity.

Beginning of process to terminate my lic.

This is an email Kevin sent me concerning a series of documents I had sent to him, later with the same documents he wrote something different saying that he was dissatisfied with what I had written. I wrote to him that my chapter vision was a verbatim repetition of the mission statement.

This is where Kevin made the decision to try to revoke my lic. for any reason The chapter vision that I wrote quotes the mission verbatim. My message basically meant that our work or my work had been done by us. I very much resented the fact that Nelly would make very minor changes to my code after I designed the website. I know that she claims that they claim for her the webgrrls site but she did not design the site the previous webgrrls had, she makes content changes to it and honestly I did not want her to take credit for work that I had read about for hours in a book as to how to do. This was totally unacceptable to me and that is what I meant though I never told him. I can work on a team when the whole team plans it but when I have to go from a site linking to passion parties essentially porn, have to plan it by myself, have to do everything it is essentially problematic to have someone claim your work and I know that small changes in the code even though I held an independent license was preparation for saying that I was helped on my site which I was not. The changes in the code was making my css sheet link to a full link rather than a relative link and something was done to the style sheet she adjusted the size on it. Since I had an independent lic. I thought this was rather inappropriate. She did tell me about it. And to be fair I told her that my style sheets were not updating automatically so she went in and changed it from a relative style sheet link to a sheet linked directly to the webgrrls domain which is not what it is uploaded to.
