I also was told my golddustwoman (I think it was) to take them down, that this lady was an attorney and would get in touch with yahoo. I took them down as soon as I read her email and I will NEVER post anyone's photos for others to see EVER again. I've learned my lesson about being nice.

It's that odd view of justice and right and wrong that keeps cropping up with Jonathan Todd and his administrators.
Do you suppose Jackie contacts the owners of those "photos of the week" she posts and gets permission to use them? I don't! I know one week they posted a picture that was taken from the Penguin because Marty had altered it with something. I wonder why the whole issue of copyright is a one way street and they're always threatening people with lawsuits when they are the ones who are constantly trampling on everyone else!
I wonder how Mr. Todd's lawyer would advise him if someone had a copy of every single version of his fanclub agreement. Do you suppose it's his lawyer who's telling him to change it without making any notation of the changes? I doubt it.
Christy, I have no doubt that almost every single one of the people who post there have at least ONE picture of FM on their hard drive that they never got permission to "take". I'd also be willing to bet that many of them took things from the Penguin and other fan sites and never even thought to ask for permission. They all seem to enjoy visiting the fan sites and enjoying their content, but don't ask them to share a darn thing with anyone else. Cry FOUL and THEIF to anyone who tries to let other fans enjoy something they have.
Maybe once the BBB, AGO and FBI teaches Mr. Todd about the law, he won't be so fast to abuse it himself.
