Did you actually surfed the site you’ve linked to?
The website 51 Japanese Characters and the app’s iTunes store page states Peter Machat being the author of all Illustrations. Just mentioning the technical author of this app and filing your post under tags like “design” and “illustration” looks a lot like you’d like Steffen do be understood as the only author?!
Really?
That’s my bad, definitely. I actually posted about that site back in 2008 (the post is here), and that’s why I didn’t check the site again and notice the name — when I saw the post about the app, I remembered that site, and just assumed that was the name of the creator. I’m going to fix the post.
Thanks Jean,
Very nice to see people taking care!
