Copyrighted Pictures in Gallery

Moostang · 08-13-2007, 06:41 AM

I have been coming across several pictures in the picture gallery with watermarks showing the pictures are copyrighted and/or proofs.

We ask that you please do not post these in the gallery. If you wish to refer to these pictures post a link to the photographer's web site. Even if the pictures aren't the greatest, they still are the photographer's. We do occasionally receive contacts from these photographers requesting their removal because they are unpaid for. Besides, HGS does state in the FAQ to not upload copyrighted pictures.

Please take some time to go through your own gallery and remove copyrighted pictures (this includes proofs that are marked as such).

If you added the watermark yourself because you are the photographer that is acceptable, but please drop me a PM so I can make a note of it.
