Pausing

Friends,

This morning I became aware that I have misunderstood the markings on photographs I've found on the internet and used within my blog. Because of a green box beneath them that said "This photo is public" (or if it wasn't marked with any copyright info), I understood it to mean they were available for using on a site such as this, where no money was being gained by their use. I also have been careful to note the individual sitename where the photograph was found. I thought I was working appropriately. I have found I was not.

In light of this information, I need to do some further research to be sure I am handling this right from this point forward. In the meantime, I will not be posting any photographs that have not been taken by me or by my immediate family and have removed all the postings that included any work I used with that improper understanding. It was the only feasible way to quickly take care of the problem.

I am very sorry to have breached what any photographer had done to protect his or her work.

Anita

Anita, I appreciate your openness and obedience. I hope you will bring back your old posts in any case (with or without the pics) as they were so good.
Bless you!
