A public apology to Access Music

I recently put up a skin for z3ta+ that used the Access logo.
I did it in good faith based on designs that have been around for quite
a few years.
However, in hindsight I realised that I over-stepped the mark in using the
actual logo from Access themselves.
I have emailed them and got a response. There are no hard feelings, they
have been very reasonable and understanding on the whole matter.
They understood where I was coming from, and I understand where they are
coming from. Win/Win.
Still, I have (without being threatened in any way) decided to withdraw
the work I put up, out of decency for the decent folks at Access.
I was not made to put up this post, I did it at my own behoof, but thought it
was the least I could do seeing as the folks at Access have been so
very accommodating on the subject.
I shall take down the link I put up for the work tomorrow. I can not post
a link for the work, I am sorry. I would do it sooner, but tomorrow is the
earliest I can do. Then it will be gone forever.
Just want to say: Thank you to Access. They realise that this was just a
mountain made out of a mole hill, and I realise that they have standards
that have to be met.
On a personal note, I think they are a great company with a great product line
and I can't wait for the day that I can afford one of their amazing
synthesizers.
Thank you Access!
And my very public apology for using your logo.
Cheers.
