Much like Karl OWNS the photos he took, Tom owns the photos that HE took. It ain't rocket science. [/b]
Karl released by the photos when he posted them. By "rights" someone else could post them without true legal ramifications.
Karl didn't put a copyright on the photos before posting them, but no one who likes Karl will post them because we respect his wishes (like Thomas)
Now, if I had posted Karls photo without knowing they were his, then he showed up and said they were his, what does that mean? Nothing.
Now in this case, Thomas has a
well established style (I LOVE his photography by the way, Thomas, I love your photography) so there really isn't a question, and I agree with him.
The only posting rights we have in terms of any real control is if someone respects our wishes. You cannot legally force anyone to remove a posted picture no matter what the intent was when it was taken, or the intent when it was posted.
It's ain't rocket science, it's politics. That's all I meant.
For the record, I post my own pictures every day on various prop boards. I have for years. I place no expectations on them, and have seen them reposted a time or two, used in a very different way than I intended.
Even if I posted an image of a
secret prop, and someone else divulged it, while it would piss me off (and I think it's safe to say Thomas is upset) what's done is done.
This image is protected by an NDA though, so
someone could actually get in trouble, but I don't think it's Juno.

I felt posting it was not fair to Phil.[/b]
Yes, I agree and said so in the originally posted image thread.
