Hi all! Sooooo, I am planning on doing another tutorial. I have a few ideas in mind, but I thought I would ask what you all might be looking for in another tutorial by me. You can choose one tutorial below as your favorite, or even suggest something new in the comments section. Please feel free to elaborate! You can see my other tutorials on Coloraddiction.com.
Here are some pics to show what kind of beads I am talking about.

Another Bead Exporter Stealing My Photos
Hi, everyone....
Just a quick blog to ask that people please not buy from this company from India - JPM Beads N Findings - they have lifted quite a few of my bead photos - even some more recent ones - to use on their website to lure people to buy their mass-produced beads. This company did not ask my permission to use my images - they just lifted them off of my website Lampwork.net.
There are a ton of images of mine all over their site - some to represent beads they sell, and some used as graphical ads and column headers. It appears that they have used the images of several lampwork beadmakers - mixed in with what appears to be their own images of their inferior work.
I have dealt with this kind of thing for years, and I have no real recourse. The only thing I can do is inform the public and ask for your understanding. Please feel free to spread the word if you feel inclined to do so.
And now I have to go try and make beads with a heavy heart. This kind of thing always steals my creative joy.
