Also, if she's objecting to having her nude photos on the net, where anyone can copy them and a potential employer or a boyfriend or whoever might find them by Googling her name, then she has a point. I'd say you should respect her wishes on this. There have been legal cases around "re-purposing" of data. Should National Geographic give photographers more money when it use their photos on CD as well as in print? What about newspaper writers whose work is later used on the paper's web site -- I think it was New York Times who went to court over that one? That sort of question is the main issue in the current strike by Hollywood and TV writers. -- Sandy Harris, Nanjing, China -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
