i don't ever do the "copyright" thing to works because i don't really know what it means. no, really, i'm pretty dense.
i don't believe in copyrights because i don't think nine letters should mean so much. i'd like people to learn to respect the work of others without being told to do so, without having the fear of being sued their motivator. at any rate, if someone really intended on taking something of another's, i'm willing to bet fifty-seven cents (apart from being dense, i'm also poor) "copyright 2005-2006 connie" won't stop him.
i don't preach it often through words, but i advocate respect by using only what's mine and giving credit where it's due. sometimes actions really do speak louder than words. i'm aware that there are many websites that offer images for personal use, but just be careful not to "accidentally" right click and save it as your own. just because it might be easier to steal in today's idiot world, it still shouldn't be condoned.
so, without further ado, i'm positive all the crappy images featured on grabaduck.com were photographs taken by myself or a relative or friend (with permission, certainly :)). the moment the camera clicked is when this understood copyright began (i refuse to pay money to the government to protect my works. oh, and did i mention i was poor?).
i'd be very happy and flattered if you'd like to use one of my crappy images as well, i'd appreciate if you notify me somehow. that can be accomplished through a comment, e-mail, or screaming real loud. if you don't do any of the listed... well, i guess i won't ever know.
