Are you going to extend your recommendations to pictures too, as they too are intellectual property? I have enjoyed your various pics that you have added to many threads in the past - don't forget to start including those references in future. Someone might believe they were all your on work. :o

No, not if they are linked from another site. Every photo I have ever used in a post, if it isn't my own photo, is linked to the original site where it was uploaded. All anyone has to do is click "Reply with quote" and the link is right there. I know you're trying to play "Gotcha!" but no cigar. :p

yes...I admit I am playing 'gotcha'. And believe me, doing so via MC is not near as fun as doing it in person.

 

Belaboring the point, not all the links to pictures are to sites where the proper credit or citation is given. Just food for thought....
