Fred has an archaic interpretation of the rules. Instead of a straight "Yes, this is the scene and I made it", he will act like the rules restrain him from admitting that he is a producer and will instead create threads in his producer sub-forum and assume people will know to look there, an approach that I've never seen anyone else take, anywhere.
It might harsh on Fred, but I don't think anyone has reported a producer for identifying a scene they made when asked. It may have been an unwritten rule or agreement when the forums were set up, but it's not codified in the rules and, to quote the sticky thread, the moderation is laid back in most instances.
To cut through the ridiculous and unnecessary loophole that only Fred follows, here's his post from the Studio 588 forum:
In reply to the question about whether a scene is available, asked in another sub forum, the answer is yes. The scene is scene 295, Hannah's Night Photo Shoot. The price for the video shoot is $12.00 and the complete set of stills is available also in two sizes. The price is $0.01 per image for the full-sized stills or half that for the same set reduced to 600 pixels in the longer dimension. There are 468 stills, so the prices are $4.68 or $2.34, except that all orders are subject to a minimum total order of $8.00.
If this actually is a rule that is enforced, then I'd like to point out how silly it is that anyone else can answer the question and Fred can't.
