Images of cats, you say?.....

I must say, those videos burst my bubble (and I am not going to lie, scared me a little). I guess I should go back to a couple posts and properly give credit.

I am not new to copyright, I know (for the most part) that you can't just use anyone's images anytime you want to. But, thinking back to the lemon-cat image I posted a couple bloggings ago, it was not even an inkling of mine to give someone credit for that, as it just seemed like silly nonsense--I guess the proper thing to do is thank and give credit to...http://lordalexvw.videofoundry.co.nz/...

...but how do I know this person didn't just do the same as I did, get it from somewhere and not state the source. I guess it simply comes down to not using images you can't source, if you want to do things properly...

I found this week very interesting--learning stuff I thought I had a decent grasp on before. I must say, though, I am realizing how naïve I was about all this image usage stuff...anyhow, here is my my Wordle-created-word-cloud, legally-found-and-used-and-attributed-image and the meme I created:

(I couldn't edit the coding to make the image bigger, and not affect the quality, any tips?)

  1. I heard some people had to screen cap the wordle and save it as a jpg to post. I didn't bother.
