Expensive BrightRoom Event Photos

[DeniseGoldberg]

I'll probably get booed and hissed, but because the only thing I used my photos for was to show mom 'n pop at home, and a few friends, I just grabbed my pics off the site and used Photoshop to take the little copyright bands off them. I know, I'm bad, but Im' not using it for my personal gain... just to keep for myself.

Yup, I'm one of the folks who will give you a hard time for this. I agree that the prices that are on these photos may be a bit high - but grabbing the photos off the web (without paying for them) is really a form of theft.

I publish my own photos on the web, and while I'm not a professional photographer the thought of people saving these photos locally really bothers me. (Reminder to self: I guess I really do need to upgrade my photo site to disallow right-click saves, although I'm well aware that folks could still use screen capture tools.)
