Defamation
Check this out. That picture’s MINE. I took it at the May 14th show in Philadelphia. This dude sticks it on his rather ugly blog and the way it’s on there, it looks like HE took it and that HE took it in Chicago. I’m pissed. I’m locking the picture directory and will rethink uploading pictures in the future. No wonder everyone’s so paranoid about copyright infringement. What ticks me off is passing something off as his own and then not even doing it accurately. Just because you were too lazy or stupid to take a camera to the Chicago show doesn’t entitle you to take my pictures! I’ll calm down if he says he’s sorry and cites the photograph. That’s all I want. Until then… I hate him.

Dear http://www.u2literary.com,
I sincerely apologize for linking to your picture without your permission. I am new to blogging and was trying to figure out how to post a picture. I was reading how you had to link to existing images versus uploading your own. I found one of your cool U2 pictures and was only testing the functionality. I never meant to leave it up this long since I thought no one was ever going to be actually viewing what I was posting.
I imagine that you were able to see in some log that I had linked to your picture, which is a good thing since it is giving me the opportunity to say that I am sorry.
I do enjoy your comments concerning my mistake; I have never been spoken of so well. Good luck and no hard feelings!
Matthew
