Re: [AGA-mcm] Posting pictures



I think a lot of folks are savvy to finding the original source of most photos and doing a direct link in their post that shows up as the image vs a clickable link. If that's the case I think we're ok.

I wouldn't know how. And how would you know it was a link, if you were just looking at it?

For those images that are definately saved and loaded onto the site, we need to require proper citations. Permissions may be too much to ask as they're often too hard to come by in "net time" where things move so quickly. Ideally, I'd love it if we would have permission for every image up on the site but I just don't see that happening.

We're really putting ourselves out ther if we don't have them, though. I'd be ticked if one of my photos showed up without my permission. I also think we have a responsibility to encourage the responsible use of other people's materials, even if it weren't for the liability issue.
