And Google Images provides me with more of this every day. ;-) So, you post links to images expropriated from other peoples' web sites, blatantly ignoring their copyrights, all the while making baseless, trollish accusations of theft and violation of copyrights against users, developers and distributors of open source software. Sweet hypocrisy.

The difference is that I'm ready to tell Free Republic to moderate the immages off of FR if I or they receive any copyright violation complaints. You don't seem to be ready to give up "free" linux do you. That is probably what the damages would ammount to in this case since they are not being used for a PROFIT like some people are attempting to use the linux kernel for. By the way I think that the other posters here who use graphics and immages probably use Google Images for the purpose. Also I think that NON PROFIT
use of such immages in a parody mannor as I use them constitutes legal fair use. All of the pictures of Dubya, Hillary, Arnold, Gray Davis and Cruz Bustemante I see here are modern and certainly would NOT fall in the public domain would they.
