This topic is so important, I'm just going to concentrate on getting this message out in this update.


It is time to address the growing number of stock images that are being taken from other websites and redistributed here in our gallery. Even though a site may have very specific Terms of Use, it appears that some people may not be aware of them.


Making changes to or combining images does not change the Terms of Use. The Terms of Use on a very popular website specifically indicates that you cannot redistribute images.


Stock images taken from other websites will be removed from our gallery as they are clearly policy violations.


Please refer to $realitysquared's journal here for more information. This topic will also be addressed in the next CEA update, which I will link when it is posted.


Please note: these images should be reported as Policy Violations not Miscats.
