Which, if I read correctly, you are not supposed to do in Pinterest.<br /><br />But you know what? If you are posting an image or quoting someone, why shouldn't you link back to them anyway? <br /><br />And to be even further on the safe side, add a note "if you are the copyright owner and don't want me to post this image, please let me know and I'll take it down." Then do so when asked.<br /><br />It takes a bit longer than just seeing something and going, "shiny! want for my very own!" but it's respectful and considerate. Wouldn't we want people to be respectful and considerate towards us too?aztecladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14857872357667370906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6662316995305232662.post-37376292978377436622012-07-11T21:47:42.917-07:002012-07-11T21:47:42.917-07:00Now I feel bad.

Makes you wonder what's next though, right? What about things like facebook? If you have a photo and tag someone can they sue you for unlawful use of their image?<br /><br />Just sayin'.<br /><br />Crap, bugger, damn, shit! The internet sux sometimes.Leahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04745608296468827669noreply@blogger.com
