A Brief Reminder About Copyright
Unfortunately, upon looking at my referral logs, I note that images from my sites have been used and manipulated without my permission. I generally take a relaxed approach about the use of my content – certainly fair use is not affected in any way, but the stealing of RSS feeds caused me to resort to partial feeds following discovery of wholesale theft of posts. Now it is images that are being hot-linked (this is bandwidth theft) and subsequent derivatives made.
I will, generally, allow people to use my images providing they ask first and acknowledge the source. I will not, under any circumstances agree to derivatives and will invoke copyright law should I discover any instances. I am currently doing so with a site at the moment.
If you are considering using my images, then please note my copyright notice and contact me first. It isn’t much to ask.
