Title: Narrow Gauge Midlands, Water Orton, 18 August 2012
Post by: MickT on August 31, 2012, 17:56
I have now got a photo report of this excellent West Midlands Group event uploaded to my blogsite at: http://micksrovingreporter.blogspot.com/

I will appreciate if everyone will please honour the copyright notice on the opening page of the blogsite. As stated on the notice, I am quite happy if anybody wants to copy and save any of my photos for their own use, but I do object strongly when I find they have been copied from my blog or picasaweb sites and re-published elsewhere under own names and without my permission or any acknowledgement. I have found that this has happened on forums and Yahoo groups several times, the most recent one being just yesterday by a member of the 5.5 Association Yahoo Group, and I do not want to feel that I need to either restrict access to my photos or stop posting them altogether because of the selfish acts of a small minority.

Regards

Mick

Why don't you put your website link on the photos? It's hard on the Internet to tell people what not to do, so use it as free publicity for your website. You can automise this with fx Photoshop.

A long time ago, I made a Harry Potter and Beatles in Playmobil and I still find these photos all over the Web. But it has generated visitors to my website. It's also used by a Chinese company on T-shirts which sell on eBay, but that's unstoppable. They relist it every time, so I just gave up.

Thanks Mick,

An excellent set of photos to remind us of a very enjoyable and successful day.

I always learn something new about the models from your informative and well researched captions.
