Hey Guys,
I just read an article saying that it is illegal to "borrow " pictures from google to use on your blogs and it set off my alarms. I'm a fan of using images in my posts as some of you might realize. In my recent post " Self Analysis " on the tactics and techniques board and the news feed 2015 on the off topic board I have used images. All come from google and I edited them before uploading.
It's a common thing for bloggers and website owners to borrow images from other sites and google without permission. I've read some other sites similar to girls chase and seen the same photos repeated. If you want proof check out lovepanky and there are more I can't remember now. Seems a lot of image sharing is going on.
This is not to say who is right or who is wrong but using photos from google can get a website banned and have fines put up against the law breaker. I think it's a rule that can be seen as stupid if you want to borrow images but also as a good thing if you want your images to not be used by every man and his brother.
But what do you think about this? Chase and Franco if you can and want to could you jump in here. If I'm going to continue posting images on here I might as well know from now that it won't cause any problems. Nor for anyone else who wants to post images that don't belong to them. Any advice guys? I won't be posting any images until it's confirmed safe to do so.

There is the link and there are more on google. Just search and you'll find them. Also I read an article sometime ago saying it's illegal to post links from your site to another. In other words, if a website takes links from all around the web and put it on their site it can get a website removed by google. Thoughts?
Edit: Here is a link I just found https://www.google.com/search?redir_esc ... 2335864515
