Damn, Sorry I said anything now. Remember these are Lawyers. Before you get too upset a few points: The Bondwire server is located in Nashville TN USA. The copyright is gone here. As long as you are not quoting paragraphs or text you have not posted the book without permission. I didn't see paragraphs from the book under your gallery pictures. Your images bare no resemblance to recent copyrighted works. I'm referring to the George Pal Universal Movie from the 50s or the Marvel Comic of the 70s. They appear to be entirely your imagenings from reading the text. Dilution of revenue is a condition for damages. Full text of the story is already available at: http://www.ibiblio.org/gutenberg/etext92/warw12.txt http://www.fourmilab.ch/etexts/www/warworlds/warw.html Abundant Images are available at: http://www.war-of-the-worlds.org/ This site contains scans of all the illustrations from the 1900 editions and covers from 126 books. http://drzeus.best.vwh.net/wotw/wotw.html It seems to me the Genie is already well and truely out of the bottle.
