If I may reply to this. I was just impressed to see all the lace. I have 
bookmarked the site so that I can look at it slowly and appreciate each piece. 
It also gave me ideas so I can look for those patterns and try them myself. 
Please don't make her feel bad and take the site off the internet.

That's a lie. 
If she found the Christmas card exchange photos on Jenny Brandis's website then 
they all have proper credits. 

The bobbin photos on my website were originally just listed as specials and I 
don't think that I stated that they were my own bobbins and my own photos, but 
I did give credit to the makers; Stuart Johnson, Eric Sutton and Barry Adams 
and because I know who made them it suggests that they are from my own 
collection. 

I now state "Unless otherwise stated all of the pictures on this page are of 
bobbins from my own collection. If you find the same image on any other website 
it has been used without my permission". That was added after I'd seen the same 
pics on Gisela's website. 

I agree with her that many pictures (and text) gets copied from one website to 
another, but that's because of people like her! 
However, as I've stated before, if you put an image onto a public website you 
are effectively putting it into the public domain even though you legally 
retain the copyright. It's the principle of not asking and not giving credits 
that offends me, not the fact that she obviously likes the pictures.
