Using a photo that is considered public domain is NOT stealing. Being that it is now public domain he was under no requirement to ask permission of anyone.

Thanks folks - its been removed.

I would have been just FINE with someone using the picture - but nobody asked.




***If you were this gracious to cut him some slack and would have been fine with it.....then maybe it is time to be gracious again and leave him alone at this point.

Obviously there is something wrong with the person for some reason, not honoring your request after you mentioned it to him.

How is he to know that she is the person in the picture. What, just because an email was sent. She does not own the picture. She took the risk of putting herself on the internet where anyone could use the picture due to it becoming public domain. He is not obligated to remove it. That should be a lesson learned. When it comes to manners and morals I'd say it's bad manners to post his name and email on a message board calling him a thief and asking everyone to flag his add. That could lead to more trouble for her than him since he didn't do anything wrong. Again I'll say if he were smart he would remove the picture because he's getting flagged and contacted.

Wow wildsky, I just lurked on this one. Guess you thought someone was in the wrong here and really, that is all one needs to get angry enough to start a thread.

Now you know how I felt when I "used" Rooster-Reds pics of his possums. At that time I could not remember who the OP was, I just copied the pics to my puter. When all hell broke loose I sincerely apologized. Rooster-Red was more than understanding.

I think you should say that you CAN use the pics you post, but it is a WWW thing. I can see your point though.

Edited to remove flaming

From the BYC rules:
3. No Flaming (verbally attacking people or groups of people - e.g. a profession, an organization, a company.)

Please keep the conversation constructive, folks. Thank you.
