LaRosa:

Thank you to whoever out there, the power that is, who is kind and putting pictures with my 'poetry'. Didn't know what to use, so didn't.
You did a great job!

    Jannypan (Jan) : How can someone unknown to you access your work to add pictures?

    DR DIP: are you saying they are plagiarizing La Rosa? I am not sure what is happening here?

    LaRosa: Oh, no, not at all!
    When I typed the piece before posting, I forgot to add a picture to go along with it. NOT a picture within the text area...
    Someone was kind enough to add a picture when it came up in FS well accepted section.
    Guessing that in that section you need a pic to draw someone to read. Don't think there's anything wrong in it. I can see how you thought what you did. I didn't describe it right the first time I guess...

    Dean Kuch: Fanstory uses pictures they attach to your posts as a default if you fail to add one of your own, LaRosa.
    They are only seen until the post is opened.

    LaRosa: thank you Dean for supplying an answer. I knew it was OK as the picture rotated daily. It's good to know there are others out there ready and willing to look out for writers on the site, though. Sorry for the confusion. :>)

LaRosa:

I am so grateful for the awesome reviews that 'You're Not My Mom' has received. The constructive critiques have taught me so much.

As a result I have added some background information to fill in some holes. Perhaps you may want to re-read even if it is longer now.

Thank you again, everyone!
