Just another strange detail here: In the guidelines of this XWALL site, it is mentioned (in Spanish) that there is a part of the site (Usuarios) where the users can post their personal favorite images (from other creators!!!) that they find all over the internet... and that the ownership of these images remains with their original creators. Of course, the site owners can't be held responsible for any mis-use of other people's images. It seems that the site itself is encouraging the posting of other artist's images... Is that legal..????????????? Without permission from the creators of the images... Aren't they asking for trouble if they allow that? I mean, who can keep track of (the proper use of) all those 'borrowed' images..? This seems to go further than I thought...
