It gets worse -
when I do "annsan" instead of ann sanfedele I get pictures of three things i have
a connection to and a lot of garbage I don't. There are copyrighted photos
of mine there. One from a book I did photos for and one from my own book - but
useless for publicity because these pics don't link back to anywhere there is info.
It would be somewhat forgivable to have thumbnails of any of our photos out there
if they provided a link back to our respective sites or ads for work done.
The ann sanfedele stuff came up because there is a site called scrabble romances -
some of the pics on Lycos are actually that where as others are not...
Time to write a letter -but what good will it do one wonders.
