Those were the feet from that big nude self portrait of mine that you
posted the other day.

My name appears in the "From" field of my posts and I try to make it
clear if I post a picture I did NOT make. That should be enough info for
those who feel like copying the pictures to add credits - just like they
would on any other quote from a newsgroup post...

On my homepage it says right at the top something like "I, Veronica
Karlsson, made these pictures..." (except where it is obvious from the
context that I did not - e.g. in quotes from my discussions with
llizard). Also enough info for anybody who would like to copy any of
them that they can add credits - just like they would on any other quote
from a web page...

I am not going to try to force people to view pictures with my initials
stuck to them (I do have some understanding for the "they look ugly"
argument), but if I see a picture of mine "published" somewhere
(newsgroup, web page, email, etc) without credits I will tell the person
who copied the picture where it came from.

That's your problem.  :)
