Again, that's not true. The image is protected by international copyright laws. The internet is not "public property." That's a very common misconception. I've had to study up on this very thing, because I was involved with a site that offered graphics for public use, and also sold graphics. Needless to say, there was some pretty sticky situations that arose from that scenario.
Youtube's attitude to video clips is a bit confusing. I often embed youtube clips in Google Wave or in the "what are you listening to" thread on SF.
Sometimes you cannot watch the embedded version and have to go to the youtube page other times you don't.
Understandable on this forum perhaps but Google own both youtube and Wave
I will freely download images unless the website declares the images to be property of the website and requires permission to down load them. If an image is labeled as copyrighted, I won't download it either.
All websites are copyrighted, even those without a copyright symbol on them. So technically, that's stealing, and breaking copyright law. I'm not just making this up. You can easily do a search on copyright laws for images. And by the way, I don't care if people right click and save images, then use them on the net. I'm just informing people that it is indeed copyright infringement. It's not like I've never done it. Of course I have.
It's very easy to tell if software is pirate, how the hell do you expect me to check images?
