  1. Hello there
    Much as I like your blog, I do wish that if you are going to take pictures from my website, you could provide a credit or a link to it:

    Thank you

    1. Really? I don't recall this photo coming from your site at all. But if it did, I don't understand why you would want a credit for it as neither of us owns the rights to any of these photos on the internet. If it had been a personal photo of yours that you had taken yourself, and with your own camera, then yes I would have. However, I try not to use people's own personal photos on here at all.

      This photo is a publicity photo; a photo call for Elisabeth Sladen as the new assistant, so I don't think it really matters where it comes from as neither of us owns the rights to it. The only people that have legal credit to it is the BBC as it's their property. That's just my opinion.

  2. Hello
    I didn't mean this particular photo, but many of the others on your blog (screen captures especially) have been copied from my website. It took me many years (and money) to assemble all those pics and information. How about putting a link to my site at the top of your blog ?
    Thank you

    1. I can honestly say that nothing on my blog came directly from your site. In fact, I wasn't even aware of the existence of your site until you posted a link for it. There are some photos on your site that I do have, but they were found elsewhere on the internet, such as tumblr - which does have endless Doctor Who pictorial threads.

      I have tried very hard to be respectful of other people's photos, especially when it comes to people's own personal convention photos or even ones that have some sort of copyright printed onto the photo itself - that's why you won't see those kinds of photos here. But I also never thought anyone would take issue, or accuse me of taking random photos from a specific site, when any of these photos can be clearly found on any number of endless sites... if people know where to look.

      If this wasn't "your" photo then why comment on this particular one? Why didn't you comment on one that pertained to, and was supposedly copied from your site? That I don't get either.

      None of the photos on this blog belong to me, and I don't care what other people do with them. They can look at them, copy them for their own blogs or make art projects out of them - whatever they like. It doesn't bother me at all because as I said a moment ago, if you look deep enough on the internet or in the right places, you can find all of this stuff no problem. But to say I took anything directly from your site is wrong.

      It also looks like you already added a link for your site in one of your comments, so I'll just leave it at that. I really don't like where this is going now.
