I have very few images on the web, and even those have turned up in the
strangest of places! I have also had a few others that proved popular once
and earned me a little money every now and then just cease being requested -
and I found why, they somehow found their way from the graphic designers
computers to 'elsewhere' ..
Sure I had a few pinched in the pre-digital days but back then if folks
wanted images, they were harder to find and they subsequently paid a
photographer to do the job - nowdays free images are just a google image
search away.
