I have had similar experiences.

I recently designed a web-site for my Operations team that condensed our entire day's reporting/checking into a five minute "click-fest". To this day, no one, other than a few co-workers, have done anything but complain that my site is not 100% MS Exploder compatable.

I look at it this way. It makes my job easier, and once I move on to a different position and/or company, the only way that app will get updated is if they hire me as a consultant!

Unless your app has some commercial viability, use it to make your job easier, don't splash your name around too much (unless it will get you a raise) and just "don't worry, be happy".

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
