my bad, rick. pics that are posted for public domain use, i.e. playstation2 from sony, then those are legal if you wanna copy -n- paste. but yeah, you're right, private photos that are posted are within 'fair use' practice. i still think that whenever i post something in the internet, i'm posting for the world to see, with the knowledge that it's open season if someone wants to copy and paste it for their personal use. if i'm somehow iffy about something, maybe a watermark on the pics will lessen the chance of someone using it.

katana, you do have a valid point tho. i've thought about your suggestion before and it just makes good sense.
