I am wondering because of the copyright law, how do you find the pictures or images to post in mylot? Do you take pictures of your own stuff and post them here or do you download some pictures from the internet and post them here? Any ideas would be appreciated!

I only post my own photos. Part of mylot rules is to make sure that the copyright laws are not broken including pictures and articles on the net. Because if you post it here, you are giving mylot the rights to publish your photos on the net. How can you give permission if it's not your own? I believe there was one discussion about this because one member's attention was called for posting photos from the net.

Right! That's what I am thinking too! Posting own photos is surely the safest means! I don't want to break mylot's rule and I am planning to start photography, I guess I could make use of those pictures I have taken *smiles*.

just beware of posting your pix on the net too coz you're giving everyone free access. The pix that I post are the ones that I'm ok if other people download them as you see some do here. The ones that I like and would like to have credit for, I keep private.

I had the same concern too. So, I just started making my own pics of artwork on my graphics editor. Another option is to go to yahoo, and search for "free photos". Also, you might try webshots. I am not sure if their pics are free to post, but they have some of the most beautiful pics on the planet on people, animal and nature. Here's a link: http://freeimages.co.uk, they have free pics--lots of variety. Hope that helps.
