"You are acting as though your opinions are fact, so I am going to assume that you fancy yourself an expert."
...by assuming such...don't you just make your opinions out to be fact, which you in the same breath accuse me of doing?
I agree with your last point. I think in this particular case, this person probably has wronged at least some of the artists who's work was posted. I just dislike it when people blindly say 'it's wrong' without really understanding why they think that. I also worry about the future of copyright and that things we enjoy today (like LJ icons) might be prohibited in the near future.
I am sorry this has gotten so out of hand. I'm not trying to make enemies. I rather like and respect the vast majority of people on this board. I am sorry if I've caused you or anyone else upset. I just don't think it's bad to have a different opinion. After all, if we have come this far and you've considered my words and I've still failed to convince you, then that just means that your own opinions have been further strengthened :)
