Why use copyrighted images in the first place? Many free alternatives exist. For example, Burningwell.org offers thousands of public domain images that you can use in your site design, and then use in the final product if the customer likes them.

...I am not now, nor have I ever been, a camwhore.

I do, however, take pictures of stuff that ain't whores.

I kid you not. TransPerth's trains are run by WestRail. The train I was on, a newish three-car one doubled-up on Platform 2, missed its departure time, then the driver cam on and announced that there was a fault with the train, so about half of the passengers scurried off to the milk-run train on Platform 6. Shortly after that, the train lost power - all of it, lights, aircon, doors, the lot - for about ten seconds, then came back up again, and about a minute later the driver came on to announce that we'd be departing as soon as the signal went green.

For context, 2 is the empty line ending above the bright sign in this picture and 6 is to the right of it (with a train departing it away from the camera for Clarkson). All of the trains in this shot are the older style, the new ones have 3 cars instead of 2, slightly more streamlined ends and are nearly twice as long.

I'm betting the suckers run XP Embedded. Anyone want to take my money? (-:

This is really, really simple. it's just not usually described in less than a hundred words.

If something is in the public domain, you have absolutely NO control over it, neither does anyone else.

If you want control, don't put it in the public domain. If you like total sharing, put it in. This means sharing even with people you hate. Tough decision, but a few people have obviously made it both ways.
