<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:
12.0pt'>I feel like breaking the posting law today; so here’s one more: I
think that if you didn’t want to create a discussion about this on
Vision2020 the best thing to have done would have been to email Tom Hansen
privately – I don’t think anyone has started to hyperventilate unreasonably
about this yet (anticipating what my friend Gary Crabtree might still like to
say to all this). Given the similar use of pictures by Dale, and the significant
story that Mrs. Husky has given about some of these uses, I would think that
Dale’s Blog is relevant to your concern here; after all, you did justify
your request by publicly stating that Tom Hansen’s web site is
slanderous. I don’t think it unreasonable to want you to offer a
coherent moral view of the local web site with similar subject matter. If
you did not base your request on the claim that Tom’s site is slanderous
and if you went to Tom privately, all of the above would be irrelevant. In
any case, I do hope you will be willing to hang around for further discussion about
web sites, slander, pictures, copy-right law, and the existence of God.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:
12.0pt'>I asked Mr. Hanson to remove <em><i><font face="Times New Roman">my</font></i></em>
pictures on his website. If Dale Courtney used pictures on his blog that I
didn't want him to use, I would ask him to remove them, and I know he would.
This is concerning my pictures on <em><i><font face="Times New Roman">Hanson'</font></i></em>s
site. I don't know where Dale Courtney gets every one of his images; I
simply know where he got mine. It is irrelevant to this discussion whether Dale
Courtney is using someone <em><i><font face="Times New Roman">else's</font></i></em>
pictures. If I were someone else, I could easily not even know him.
Please contact <em><i><font face="Times New Roman">him</font></i></em> if you
have an issue with a photo he has posted.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:
12.0pt'>I don't want to get in some big debate over all in the in's an out's of
picture rights. Mr. Hanson put a picture on his site that belongs to me,
and I have asked him to remove it. It's as simply as that. Though I am not a
proffesional photographer, I do take pay jobs for my work from time to time.
It would be absurd to think that he has some kind of right to this
photo. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:
12.0pt'>I am asking him to do what I would do in the same situation. Even for
the pictures I have taken myself, (which I have full rights to post, even if
people don't like it) I have a complaint form (since I post lots of pics) that
people can fill out if they don't like a pic I took of them. <a

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:
12.0pt'>But this is an even different situation. He has used one of mine. Dale
Courtney has told me that he has always had a copyright notice on his site. But
even if he didn't, Mr. Hansen should still remove it, because the owner has
just asked him too. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

Hansen keeping that picture and video up won't keep me from sleaping :)<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
