Hello Gypsy Magic,
ReplyDeleteyou have used my copyrighted image “Crossroads” for your blog
without my permission, without giving me author credits and without copyright information. You can see my original here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/liebermann/580181284/
Like texts, images have authors that deserve to be credited and payed, you also need their permission if you use their work. This is not only regulated by copyright law, but a matter of fairness.
I am a professional photographer, but I will not bill you for the non-commercial use of my work.
Instead, I deserve and demand to be credited properly – please add a byline “(C) by http://www.martin-liebermann.de” (with link) to the image.
Please stay safe and fair when using other peoples intellectual/artistic property. Images “found on the internet” are usually NOT free to use – unless the author tells you so.
Using them without permission and author credits is not only prohibited. It is also part of a "culture of entitlement" that is nothing but an expropriation of artists. We are the people who have spent a lot of work, time and money to create the works you carelessly use without giving anything in return.
Kind regards
