Re: Anybody using Walter's Gardens images


Jems - just checked your hoosier gardener website.  The Walters Image at
http://hoosiergardener.com/?p=10210 of the Joe Pye weed is easily copied
and downloaded with a right click.  There's no copy protection there at
all.  This means you're in violation of the Walters Terms of Use for that
image. (sorry to have to tell you).  If I can get the image from you - it's
in a downloadable format and against the terms.  None of your images have
any copy protection on them - I can suck them down individually or take
your entire site in a few minutes.

Not sure what software you're using to protect those images from copying
and downloading but it isn't working.
