So sorry this happened. I guess...Hi sweet friend!<br /><br />So sorry this happened. I guess she should have signed her photos to protect then. Knowing you, I know you would NEVER intentionally try to hurt someone.<br /><br />Let's get together soon, okay?<br /><br />Love and miss you.<br /><br />BTW... I'm back to blogging! I might not post or visit as often as I used to, but I promise I'm back. Loved catching up with you.<br /><br />Life is so good for me right now. I'm loving life and going "full steam ahead", so time on the computer is limited.<br /><br />Hugs,<br />KatJustabeachkathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06730467440181411875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7195304175457596845.post-46141212073646373342012-09-10T08:20:25.201-06:002012-09-10T08:20:25.201-06:00Loui,
Please, don't let this take the wind out...Loui,<br />Please, don't let this take the wind out of your sails. I once had an similar experience. I did give credit with a link to the blog...but I did not see that I needed to ask for permission before posting and linking. The blogger was one of the biggies. I fired off an email and apologized for my oversight. She immediately emailed me back from her IPhone. She was gracious,accepted my apology, and granted me permission. I felt so relieved. Mistakes happen. <br /><br />I wish that I was walking on your beautiful white sugar beach right now!<br />Thank you for visiting and becoming a friend of 34th Street!<br />I'm your newest follower!<br />~Lynne<br /> w/L.<br /><br /><br /><br />Lynnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00990373651788404672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7195304175457596845.post-72464958231756035652012-09-07T22:05:49.187-06:002012-09-07T22:05:49.187-06:00Whoa!!

I have missed alot while my computer was down. sorry about all of this and I definitely do agree that her way of stating her opinions sure could have been done in a much nicer way.

If this photographer looked at you the way she does a landscape, she would see a beautiful lady.

I would consider it an honor to see others using my photos, but that's just me. We live in a sue everyone society, so Muddy Boots is right, you could even get sued for doing this.

If I can find it I will send you the link.<br /><br />I have a very clear, do not copy policy on my blog, every one of my photos are original, and watermarked because they are mine. I have a Creative Commons attribution on my blog, it can't be missed. Some blogs will allow you to use the photo with permission, some will go after you.<br /><br />Please be careful, it's not as simple as just giving credit to the photographer.<br /><br />You might like to read up on the creative commons attributions that some blogger use to let others know how and if they can use their photographs.<br /><br />I do agree, there are better and nicer ways of asking if the photo could be taken down, or used with permission.<br /><br />Jen @ Muddy Boot DreamsRURAL https://www.blogger.com/profile/11871803235521431504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7195304175457596845.post-14522652702020545182012-09-05T20:20:58.977-06:002012-09-05T20:20:58.977-06:00Whoa......I google pictures all the time!

It was on a "for sale" site...she was very gracious and I did give her credit on the post. <br /><br />I guess I'll learn my lesson too!

Since Day 1 when you began your blog, you asked me if you could use a photo of mine that you liked and you have continued to do that a few years later into your blog.<br />I am glad you wrote this for other bloggers to learn from. You did a really nice job in the Southern lady-like manner which is so You!<br />~M~~margo~https://www.blogger.com/profile/16451269213941356683noreply@blogger.com
