[And, I do think you would mind someone taking your creative endeavors and making money off of it without crediting or compensating you, as much as you say you wouldn't. Obviously, I'm not going to do that, so there's no way to prove my case, but I think if you saw a website pop up with all your works displayed on it and no credit to you at all, I think you'd be emailing the owner. The very fact that you include the thread in your signature and post about it, is enough to show at the very least, you'd like some recognition for your work.[/quote]
Maybe I'm just too damn old and jaded because; I honestly wouldn't give a rat's ass about any of that. As I expained in one of my early posts, I composed the pages for my own enjoyment, and it is no skin off my butt to share them. I realize that you feel you are losing financially which of course gives you a differant perspective, but that doesn't give you the right to insinuate that I'm a liar. I said that someone using those pics would not bother me a lot. I did not say that I would be not be upset in a case involving theft of my intellectual property.
I also have no problem seeing that you feel there is a big differance between the two cases in the allegory while I see it as a little differance. The way we feel about each and every thing is colored by the associations our mind makes with that particular thing. The man who nearly drowned in a lake has a differant associations in his mind with it than the man who met his wife and true love while boating on it. So, big differance for you, little differance for me, just a matter of perspective then.
One question you haven't addressed is that concerning the possibility of the pirated video leading someone to your site and your subsequant enrichment. So...?
