That's odd... My name has changed too - I have never used my business name on here - only Patricia McB so how this forum has got its information is beyond me. I did not join this forum to overtly tout my business (and now it looks like that's exactly what I have done which has left me a bit miffed).
The only thing I can think of is its somehow reading info from gmail user names (I tend to always be logged into gmail) or a linked site???
Any ideas???

Sadly very little is reliable today....the world wide web has its own weird and wonderful ways. Some of my friends have typed in my name followed by 'artist,' purely from curiosity as to how I achieved web notoriety (Tee hee hee!), and they have commented, asking 'Was that one of yours?' And guess what....No it definitely was not, so where these images are coming from I do not know, but they are interspersed here and there with my own works. Annoying to say the least.
