Yeah sure I rip off your stuff all the time, because it does make us look cool when we find and share cool stuff. P.S. please don't get a watermark
Hilariously demonstrated by the sheer number of websites, blogs, and aggregators that have popped up with the sole intent of stealing and monetizing content from communities like Something Awful and 4chan.org. Anonymous posting doesn't tend to go hand in hand with claiming rights to content you've created.
Yikes, I should take some notes from this flowchart. I google a lot of the images for my blog, and usually I think they're generic/benign enough to not require copyright...
Sharing on the internet is like sharing between toddlers: it never turns out the way you like and it's usually covered in spittle
What's worse is you misspelled "appropriate".
It can never be said enough: stealing credit for something on the Internet is a baaaaad thing. Just ask Cooks Source...good luck finding them, though.
Anyone else feeling odd about all the chaos in Cairo? Sure feels like the right time to repent and look to the Lord Jesus Christ for forgiveness and hope don't you agree? God have mercy on us.
