I have thylia sword.gif in two places on my hard drive. One is located in my Graal webgifs folder while the other one is located in my Graal-Related folder. My Graal webgifs folder goes back many years and has many graphics no longer online; it might not be that easy to track down.
The image might also have been a sword from an old PWS that was on Graal at one time or maybe from one that never made it past construction. It might also have been a graphic somebody sent me to look at and critique or possible fix something on their graphic since people send me graphics to fix and take a look at all the time.
Looking at the Metadata embedded on that file, I see that it was made or copied to my computer on July 11, 2003 but sometimes those dates are not very accurate at times. I figured that posting on the GFX section might jog someone’s memory as to who might have made the sword once they looked at it.
Since image usage rights is a big issue when working on graphics for general viewing, I will withhold using that image online unless I hear otherwise. Some of you may wonder why I make a big deal when it comes to usage rights but once you work in any aspect of design or visual communications, you very quickly learn just how important they really are when protecting your work or your clients work.
Thanks for the help and I will still wait to see if I hear anything about that graphic, I might still luck out and find the creator of that sword.
Take care & pixels beware!
