I dunno Christopher, I doubt Stephen King would be too happy if I used a chapter from one of his stories in a book of my own.... Record Companies are even now kicking off at DJ's just for using tiny SECTIONS of songs in mixes.... and I'd seek and destroy anyone 'borrowing' sections of my images without asking. uh-uh. Copyright is copyright is copyright. When the person asked you hypothetically if you would like your image to be used, I think they were being polite about saying it shouldn't really be done. Not everyone is as forthright as me and New Yorkers ;-) btw - love the "Many of you go goo goo gaa gaa over them but the reality is they are just photographs" he he he!!! I'll have to remember that one! (",) btw, sorry if I seem a bit harsh on the copyright point, but we've recently had the subject clarified here in the forum, and in retrospect Renderosity's stand on the subject is very clear and understandable.
