There you go, the name is added. My lapse was because Omega Chess existed long before the website, although in retrospect I can see that this is an inadequate benchmark for 'antiquity'. Rather than 'stealing' the idea, I am rather paying tribute to the game - I share your view of which of the variants called 'Omega Chess' is the better. Nor do I challenge the idea that someone else 'got there first' - not even Isaac Newton was that arrogant. The essence of my variant is that I would never have thought of it without the example of the earlier variant. Think of all the Shogi variants - are they a 'theft' from Shogi's truly ancient inventors? Far from it, they are acknowledgments of its greatness.
