The question is, what commercial value do screen-resolution, much less than fullscreen size, copies of my images have? Because that's all that can be stolen. And will they ever be stolen by people who'd consider paying? If not, then there's no lost income anyway. Still annoying, and worth threatening prosecution etc. But not an actual financial loss. -- David Dyer-Bennet, <mailto:dd-b@xxxxxxxx>, <http://www.dd-b.net/dd-b/> RKBA: <http://noguns-nomoney.com/> <http://www.dd-b.net/carry/> Pics: <http://dd-b.lighthunters.net/> <http://www.dd-b.net/dd-b/SnapshotAlbum/> Dragaera/Steven Brust: <http://dragaera.info/>
