Re: [GWL]: Images and copyrights online

I am not sure the writers/speakers were consistent in their use of linking
and/or framing. A link and a frame are not necesarily the same thing.  A
link to something can be framed or unframed. A framed link makes it look
like the linked destination is on the linker's site rather than the linkee's
site and the linker retains control over the visitor. Although an alert
visitor will realize what has been done, many visitors do not. I can see
where the linkee would have problems with this. Someone is doing it to some
of my work and I am not happy. No sireeee.

An unframed link, on the other hand, takes the reader completely away from
the linker's site and out of the linker's control. I do not see how that
could be a bad thing. To destroy the freedom of unframed linking would
destroy the beauty of the internet -- it was made to link together! :)
