Sent you a message and Kat politely declined me. I respect you for it I just figured it would save me a lot of time since I'm doing the GNR part right now. I will respect your wishes and just use SJMike's site since he has given me permission.

Great site and keep up the good work Mike and Kat.

Good to see some people going along with your request! Hopefully everyone will.


Just a (perhaps dumb) question though, isn't it a bit like free advertising for you? Like if I was starting a hamburger chain I wouldn't link to McDonald's site - there goes all my business - you know what I mean.


Maybe you can put your contact details etc a bit more obvious, or watermark - i don't know just take some extra steps, just in case, so if people do see your work, they'd prefer to deal with you over the third party.

So anything else to do with this direct linking issue?


For anything else, there's always PMs - because you'd hate to get personal and get warnings or bans, right?


Stay on topic

Think he is just being a big baby, is it really a big deal that people use your info pages? Sure you may be able to stop a few here from using them, but not anyone else.

If it gets to you that much go ahead close your precious site, look forward to seeing the worlds largest txt file sent to me if I show interest in a trade with you later on

Perhaps they're more annoyed about people passing their info pages off as their own, maybe to increase their chances of scoring a trade for example?


I can understand the need you'd feel to defend your own IP, people can spend months creating their websites, and become attached to them, they should get a little credit don't you think?

I just dont get how its a big deal especially when others freely allow what leper is making an outlaw!!!! For christ sake they are only screens not protected trees.

everyone can see its a differnt site they are getting linked too, no one can hardley claim these pages are theres can they?

Opinions vary, you are entitled to yours, whoever you are

well my time now, i have had a few emails over the last few days asking if they can use my screens for there own sites along with various pages from my site, which i have declined in a polite manner, only to find out a few days later they are using them anyway. im not gonna mention names but you all no who you are and it pisses me right off.
so i have and im in the process of adding a watermark to all my screenshots (otherbands section is finished) i didnt want to have to do this but i have.
only 1 person i gave permission to use my screens which i kindly organized and sent them to him (JW) because he was having issues so i sent him a few he wanted and asked for so jw feel free to keep using the ones i sent as all the others will change anyway.

every1 else take some time out and build your own god damn site.
