Should I put a 'How to make cels' section on my page? (Sun Nov 4 03:41:45 2001 )

I'm wondering how many people would be interested 
in me putting a 'how to make animation cels' page 
on my website, including supplies, supply costs, 
where to get 'em, etc. (And I'd even put in a 
little 'ethics of cel reproduction' note)

The thing is, I get SO many people emailing me 
asking for help on how to make cels, and there 
are usually people who post in here wondering how 
to do it too.  Instead of typing up my usual 
multi-paragraph bit on 'this works... this 
doesn't... try doing this... you can get these 
things at this sort of place' I was thinking of 
doing a page that people can be easily referred 
to.  I'll probably scan the cel of Nuriko I'm 
doing in various stages to illustrate the point.  

So why am I asking?  Well I'm sure there's a 
couple of people on this forum who would really 
not like me having a how-to-make-reproduction-
cels tutorial. (With the fear that some 
unscrupulous types are going to make some well 
done reproduction cels and sell them off as the 
real thing.)  

If I just get positive feedback, great!  If I get 
some people with legitimate concerns (legitimate 
does not mean 'you better not put a link to my 
site as an example of good cel scans to use as 
reproductions' give me SOME credit) I'll take 
them into account.  If some people want to give 
me suggestions on the 'ethics' part (I have 
signing them, marking them as 'reproduction' and 
changing some minor detail to help differentiate 
it in the future already) that's even better ^_^
