Guy Brunke AKA Guyco Gecko - Theif, liar, flipper

no. i really don't care. i still don't think any of this is even worth a discussion, whether it is technically legal or not.

I think this discussion is great. I am glad that whoever searches Guy Brunke will find this thread, and be able to know who they are dealing with.

You thought it was worth a discussion about an hour ago.

MAYBE if it was some professional photo scanned directly out of a book, and then posted on a website to sell an animal, i could see the problem, but the way that this all played out, i don't see the problem with it.

as for my morals as a designer, i either use paid for graphics/photos or design/take my own, unless content is provided to me by my clients.

Eric, you are one in a million for not being bothered by someone using someone elses photo for financial gain.

As the son of a photographer I understand that the photo is his livelihood and should be respected as such. If my father takes a photo he owns the photo or his employer owns the photo but when someone else wants to use the photo, that my father took, that person or entity has to pay royalties to my father or his employer.

If you have enough of an understanding to use royalty free media on your customer websites then you have a general understanding of the way copyright works.

Lucky you Mr. Ryerson. You're fortunate to have had the luxury of foreknowledge that he may sell them. So far i haven't heard of a single breeder who supplied him that knew beforehand what he was up to. What we have seen so far is plenty of his deception.
