Hi Victor,
I�ve tried to contact you about a worksheet I posted, but the mail bounces back. Must be that your mailbox is full.
I posted a worksheet from my site, Heads Up English, which you rejected as a copyright violation. As I own the copyright, I would like to post it here. The original worksheet can be found here:
http://www.headsupenglish.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=384&Itemid=35
I have other worksheets I would like to post here, but obviously won�t be able to if you deem them copyright infringements.
Thank you in advance.
Chris

DEAR CHRIS,
I love your website, i visited it regularly and i even receive your newsletter!!!
But i was wondering, if we can get the worksheet from your own site; what�s the point of you publishing it here? Please, don�t take this the wrong way; what i simply mean is that we would be spending a point from our account when we can get the very same exercise from your site for free, you know what i mean?
Maybe, if you published new and novel things in this site, that don�t appear in your own website, they would be accepted here.
I hope you take this a simple and friendly advice.
Looking forward to seing your work in here-
Regards,
Aldana

You are being a bit selfish and inconsiderate in my opinion, Chris. Using this site as a free advertisement for your own website in such a blatant way. Why don�t you spend a bit of time and make something FOR ESLPRINTABLES instead of FOR YOUR OWN BUSINESS that you would like to advertise here? �For example, why do you post your website address every time you post a message? Your website address usually has little to do with the message you�ve posted. �I won�t be downloading anything from your website due to your advertising in such illicit ways.

Aldana,
You�re absolutely right. Providing a few worksheets here which are available for free on my site makes little sense, and it was something I hadn�t considered. I simply wanted to provide quality worksheets to more teachers. I�ll have to put something together solely for ESL Printables.
Dareka1,
I don�t see anything wrong with posting my site�s address as part of my signature, especially considering that so many of my posts provide links and ideas to other resources not connected with Heads Up English. I would fully agree with you if each and every time I just said "GO TO MY SITE!" and didn�t help the community of teachers here. This post in which I�m trying to contact Victor is one of the few exceptions.
You and I disagree, though. That�s fine.
Good luck to you both, and thank you for the input.
Chris
