I agree with Lorrie. I think it would be nice to keep the original title seeing as it is her work and the name she gave it. I have looked at both photos and was also wondering what changes you have made in GIMP. If you made significant changes, I could see why you would want to rename it, but otherwise, I think that seeing as it is Lorrie's work, it should keep the name she gave it. Of course this is only my opinion.

By the way, I really like the image. Great work!

You have stolen this image from my wife's work. You have NO right to be distributing this image.

Hi, can You to prove it is realy art by Your wife? Sorry, if it is realy. But I download it from flicker.com, and there this image is stored by Lorrie McClanahan with Creative Common License. That means I can make derivative and republish it with the same License. There is the link to page where I found oryginal art http://flickr.com/photos/mcclanahan/41350696/in/set-72157594177654343/

So pleas send me some more info to prove this picture is not legal to put here. I understand it can be possible someone not legaly post it to flickr.com on CC License but I must have some evidence to remove it from here. You know, anyone can tell its his art.

Hi, this is Lorrie. My husband found out about this in the middle of the night and wasn't able to ask me about the license, my feelings about it, etc. I understand the image had a CC license and as long as you're not selling the wallpaper downloads I really don't have a problem with it. However, it would have been nice if you'd asked first before offering it for wide distribution.

The reason it's low resolution is precisely that I don't want just anyone to have the capability to enlarge or print it, so that's not going to change.

I do appreciate that you posted my name as the creator. Overall, I think there was a misunderstanding and I just want to clarify that I have no issue with this photo being used as free wallpaper. Why not use the original title, though..."Melting Pot."

If you want to verify that this is Lorrie McClanahan you can email me through flickr and I'll respond.

Thanks.

Please tell me you are the creater of the pic and that you can make a bigger resolution of this? 1600x1200 perhaps? widescreen would also be nice

As I write in description it is based on photo by Lorrie McClanahan. So I only slightly GIMPed it, and it is not possible to make higher resolution, it look badly in 1600x1200.
