Just read your little 'about the photos' bit - you should be totally fine with that up.

In the U.K, You'd only get into major bother if you were trying to make money off the stuff on a large scale - that is to say, people like Dodgy Dave selling knocked off DVD's for a fiver down the local car-boot sale. Since this certantly 'ain't you, I wouldn't worry.
 
whey ! Thanks for clearing that up...just hope your right

*edit*

ive updated the translation bit to a drop down menu
 
yes but my photos are public domain and fine to use as long as im not selling them.
 
True enough, but if you're not sure about a pic's origins, but want to use it, the above advice is good. 99.999% of the time I'm sure it would be okay, and you might even get bonus pictures from the owner by means of a thank you.

One e-mail, 2 minutes of your time, costs you nothing, but buys you peace of mind - sounds worth it to me!
 
yea ive tried emailing lots of photographers and they say they cannot let me use them.
I do try

My teacher said something like that he said "manners cost nothing,mean everything"
 
Tsk! What a bunch of tight-wads - you're only a guy making an online scrapbook.

Seems a bit like stomping on a sandcastle that does. Oh well, you did the right thing anyway.
 
yea thats what i think,why do they want me to have them free when they can sell there photos
 
Are you implying that people who pay for photographs for publications or books are stupid? Are you implying that people who take their time, money and effort to take great photgraphs should do it for free?

I happen to take and sell photographs. Some I would be willing to let someone with the right attitude use for free. Others I would expect people to pay for. If I am going to do it for a charity, it won't be yours.
 
also of note Karbine, guys like you with give away online pics - free domain and copyrighted will cause legit authors not to release their own works on the net knowing full well that they will be "stolen". Another very important item is books, with the ever increasing note of online piracy of scanned photo images from books to the online programs where everthing is deemed "free"; I know of at least 6 German historians who will never publish becaue of this. this is very sad as there some unreal unpublished images that would be quite important to the aviation community but the owners/authors of the images are much too afraid of release and be in the wrong hands.

Some things you need to be aware of and seriously think about.........
 

wow wow,no sorry mate,total misunderstanding there,what i ment was you do get some people who are stupid and buy photographs at rip off prices.

Sorry if this offended you in anyway
