But if you need a magnifier does it matter how many angels you can fit on the head of a pin? -----Original Message----- From: owner-photoforum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:owner-photoforum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Emily L.

There are computer programs, like Extensis Portfolio, which make tracking these things less onerous. And releases for use are going to vary widely depending on the provenance of the image in consideration. But in some sense a project like that really isn't analogous to the music sampling issue. The tiled montages I know are composed of recognizable images, even when printed in a medium sized coffee table book, as long as one looks with some attentiveness. And if you use images from the big two- Corbis or Getty - they will get out a magnifier and check them out and be on your case in a moment. -- Emily L.
