Subject: Re: Photo's of bridge
Chet,
In the past, I have had trouble with people stealing my stuff to use in Wiki, so
I have had an anti-wiki leaning. But I have noticed that Wiki has gotten a lot
better at educating folks about stealing and copyright. Since you asked nicely,
I'll give it a try. You have the option of using one of the photos directly from my
web site for this one bridge in question, or if you tell me which photo it is that
you want to use, I can dig up the camera original and send that to you. The
only thing I ask is that it be attributed to "John Weeks", "John A Weeks III", or
"www.johnweeks.com" (whichever is more consistent with how folks give
attributions).
Thanks,
-john-
