Thanks for acknowledging this with the blog post! It raises a lot of great discussion points (hopefully raised responsibly alongside a pint or two of that tasty Shed Ale) and I’m glad to see that you’ve got the dialogue going here on the Barkings! blog.
I wrote about this issue last night: http://blog.founddrama.net/2009/02/take-what-you-can-get/ — and my own experiences.
In each case that this has happened with my own photography, the “offenders” have always been quick to respond and very accommodating and fair in their responses.
As an amateur photographer, it’s a slippery subject for me. I’m not making any money off these photos and I am eager to share them and very flattered when someone wants to use them. But as any artist, author, scientist, etc. will be quick to point out — they want some credit for their creations!
Again, as I delighted to see my photo appear in Tech Tails and I was more delighted at how y’all at Small Dog responded to my (very minor) grievance.
cheers!

A matter of semantics: “In most cases, it’s wise to assume photos and images you find online are indeed copy written.”
No…“In most cases, it’s wise to to assume photos and images you find online are indeed copyrighted.”
A copyright designates the RIGHT of ownership, not the ownership of writing.
