Many people are unaware of what is "theft" of graphics. Many people do not understand the difference between what is allowed to be done with graphics and what is not. Here are some basic out lines of what you can and can not do with graphics on the net: Uploading graphics from one Graphics site to any other Graphics sites, is considered redistributing. Redistributing graphics with out the artist permission is STEALING! Photo Bucket is NOT Public Domain and many of the graphics there are there without the artists permission. Many people do not realize that they should set their albums to PRIVATE to keep their Pictures and graphics from being stolen. Many do not realize that if they are collecting graphics they like in their albums they are also allowing those graphics to be stolen if their album is not set to PRIVATE. That is very unfair the the artists of those graphics because many people do not realize that PHOTO BUCKET and site like it are NOT PUBLIC DOMAIN. Photo Bucket is NOT a good place to get graphic resources (graphics you can use to make graphics or layouts). If you use graphics from Photo Bucket chances are that you are stealing somebody's hard work, or Personal Pictures. If you are using graphic creation sites such as Blingee or Imikimi to "make" graphics even if you crop off the site name, it is stealing if you redistribute them by uploading those graphics to other Graphic sites. Those site are for making PERSONAL graphics for use on PRIVATE sites such a family web pages, memorial sites ect. only. DO NOT use graphics found on Glitter-Graphics to "make" graphics or layouts, it is STEALING and against the TOU (terms of use)of the site. PERSONAL USE ONLY means you can use the graphics to decorate and send to friends on personal sites such as here on GG, MYSPACE, Private Family web sites and private memorial sites. Taking a graphic and "altering" it (adding a background, frame, wording or covering over parts such as the signature tag) does not make that graphic yours, it is still stolen unless you have gotten permission from the original artist to use the graphic. Do Not use any art that you do not know who the artist is or where it is from, and always give credit the the artist who's work you use. There are many sites on the net that provide resource artwork for making graphics. Make sur to always follow each artists ToU. Thank You to all of my friends that have made me these wonderful graphics! I download and save EVERY graphic made for me. I have a huge amount of computer storage space :)

Hello there, I wanted to stop by to fill you in on some things happening in my life. Things have been hectic,sad, happy and in between. First I am on summer vaca from school. It was a tough year for all of us teacher and students. but we managed to overcome. I return back to school first week in August to begin a new school year. And that brings me to my next bit of news, Haley, you all know Haley my granddaughter, my side kick has graduated high school. Where has the time gone. Just yesterday the 2 of us were playing Barbies and I was teaching her colors, shapes, ABC's, numbers etc. She will be attending our local state college in pursuit of becoming a radiologist. So proud of her as you all know I would be. Next and, this is the toughest, My mom who was 88 passed away on Memorial day. I have gone through so many emotions, and feel numb, but this will pass as I have memories. She gave up after getting very sick with an undetected UTI. Please just know I am ok just knowing she is at peace.
In the meantime, I wish all a great day today, and beautiful rest of the week and a safe and healthy summer, Robbie for you I wish a wonderful winter. Love hugs and happiness, Linda
