I don't believe that's the point though. We all tend to expect a certain
type of behavior from a corporate entity even though it's made up of people.
I think the issue is we wanted to know how the images are going to be
used, and usually when some 3rd party entity is going to use or display our
photographs, things are pretty much spelled out. After additional
correspondence I was satisfied.
If someone wrote the list saying "Hey do you guys mind if I download and
save around 100 PUG pictures for a photo presentation I'm doing"... do you
think the list at large would simply say "Sure go ahead, they're just small
.jpgs and I'm aware I retain the copyright?" I wouldn't. I realize we
don't have strict control over the images out there to begin with.
