Hi! I just read a thread with links to my blog on cookiedecorator.com. First,I want to compliment your Irish cookies. Very cute, and I love the horseshoe with the clover. I know you read my post about "questions". I just want to say that my blog is to promote my business and I frequently answer, and don't mind regular readers and commenters questions. It's the people that come from nowhere asking for recipes and a million other silly questions that could easily be answered via google. Regarding copying vs inspiration, I certainly don't mind if people are inspired by my work.In fact I think it's great (especially if they post with links). It's the exact, line for line, color for color copying that is unethical IMO. I still don't watermark my pics and I try very hard to continually change and tweak my designs to stay ahead of the pack (if I even am ahead) and to attempt originality. Every cookie design, even an apple, can be done with the individual decorators style. I like your cookies, I'm guessing you use glaze like Pam. I admire that, don't think I could work as well with glaze. Keep up the original designs and best of luck to you!! Laura
