	I think that since you went to all the trouble, it would be a
	shame for it to go to waste.

	I like #2 myself.  I think that you should check it out, and find
	out if there is indeed any problem.  Another thought is, just send
	it (via email) to those sites who request it.  Is there a specific
	copyright prohibiting electronic images?  If so, you may have already
	violated it.  If not, then there wouldn't be a problem (provided,
	of course, you give credit where it's due).

	If you find that there isn't ANY way to implement option 2, without
	endangering yourself, then I suppose that your first or third choices
	will have to do.


		I VOTE FOR # 2 !!!!
