Gav,

The pic was posted on that oz_pol site which is a yahoo based email group.

It was only hosted on imageshack by the person who posted the original topic on this forum, not the original photographer.

At least HPS could of given credit to the photographer to 'LFBF' from the above named group in his inital posting.

I dont get it?

If you put an image on imageshack or photobucket the whole world can see it but you cant post it on a forum?

No, you cannot repost it if you don't get the photographer's permission.

That was the issue... the original poster took someone else's image from somewhere else and put it on imageshack. That's not on - of course you can do what you like with your own photos and certainly I have no problem with linking to other photos publicly made available on services such as imageshack by the original photographer or with his permission.

Fair enough
