Hi Titila,
 
All you can do is upload your worksheets again, explain that they are your own creation, even though they may look scanned, and if reported I believe most moderators will vote for them to stay and because of your description they are unlikely to be reported.
 
I only looked at the moderators page for a short time yesterday as this is a very busy period.  I saw your worksheets, but didn �t vote because it wasn �t a clearcut decision.  I suppose many moderators felt the same and didn �t vote.  I must say that one of the moderators thought she/he saw (a) picture/s from a textbook in one of your worksheets.  Since you got your pictures from the net, then this very well may be true and if so, then no injustice was done. 
 
There aren �t any rules on how to make worksheets except regarding copyright, size and the fact that they must be in a Word Document for uploading.  So continue producing worksheets the way you know how.
 
Sincerely,
David Lisgo

Dear Titila,
I see you are writing in the heat of the moment... I find it a bit difficult to understand your explanation. Anyhow, your worksheets are great, you don �t have to apologize for anything!!!
Every now and then there is a doubt whether a worksheet is scanned or not, but relax because (hopefully most times) moderators will remove it only if there �s clear evidence of it.
Good luck,
Cyn

Dear Titila,
 
Two of your worksheets are still on the �reported contributions � page. Why don �t you defend them there as you are a moderator.

Titila,
Please don �t delete your worksheets... there �s no need... there �s nothing wrong with the files being uneditable (is that a word?)...

Titila, I agree with the rest! You shouldn �t remove your ws!! They are really very creative!!!and appealing!! I �ve told you before... I love your style!!! If you remove your work... we won �t have any more chances of sharing it with the rest. Let me tell you... I �ve come across many pictures you use in internet, many in picassaweb... I guess they belong to a published material or sth; however the way you transform the whole thing into very creative and cute exercises, cannot be discussed!!
Please, relax yourself... take your time... think it over...and STAY IN THIS SITE! Warm regards, from Cordoba, Argentina. Fabiola :o)

I sent you a pm asking you about this and even though I did not receive a reply I ask you again to fight against this... if you are saying the truth why would you delete them?
 
If I were you I would upload them again...
 
Have a good day.
