The issue of taking and re-using content from web pages isn't specific to the cel community. I've seen it come up on newsgroups and web forums covering an amazingly wide variety of topics. Unless you have been living in a cave with no net connection, I imagine you have also seen some of these discussions. Long before I became a cel collector or an anime fan, I knew that it was poor netiquette (as well as amazingly lame) to take and re-use people's images or text without at least giving credit and a link. If you actually want to convince people that you do not _intentionally_ distribute "taken" images, might I suggest responding sympathetically to requests for removal? It does not look convincing to combine arguments of "I didn't know, people just upload this stuff" with ideas like "you don't _own_ those images, and if you want your site to remain unique you are a pretentious jerk". --Atiya It's a sad day for the net when people are arguing that netiquette should be ignored because it has no force of law.... :-( |
