Greetings,
I'm posting to the list an email I received this morning. In the body of
the email was one of my images, presumably a jpg that this person (I've
withheld his name) cut and pasted from my website, and the following letter:
"Hi my name is XXXX XXXX and I am the owner of a small graphic design
company. I would like to use the picture below on my wall as inspiration for
myself and my designers. I am looking to blow it up to the size of the wall
and use a decoupage technique on it. Basically like one big mural. I am
originally from the Boston area and found this picture in particular to be
very inspiring. Honestly I was hoping I could use the picture in good faith
as I do not have a lot of money right now. Please let me know what I need to
do to get a high res picture. I do not want to use this for any advertising
purposes and it will only be on display in our office."
End quotation.
Has anyone else on the list ever received a letter like this?? I think it's
a pretty outrageous letter - for a variety of reasons....
Your thoughts are welcome.
Best - Jon
