.....but did they get permission to use the photos?

Sarasota Fruit & Nut Society

Nicolas Naranja · 07-21-2011, 03:20 PM

A lot of the varieties are misidentified as well

MediaHound · 07-21-2011, 04:15 PM

Nah.. thats my African Rhino Horn on the right, I remember taking that pic.
As is life on the internet, when you post pics you kinda expect if they are good to make their rounds around the web. At least they are watermarked and the org gets some credit

At least they didn't crop out the watermarks, lol.

Pay attention to MediaHound, he speaks sooth.
No one can stop the use of any material posted on the Internet. Ferinstance: people still post and download Sony's music without paying, even after they prosecuted a little girl to set as an example.
The Internet is a great practioner of sharing. The Sarasota Fruit and Nut Socierty is a quasi-educational group. The best you can do is pay a lawyer to ask them to cease using the photos. But you have to ask yourself, have you lost anything because they use these pictures?

I found it a little amusing that the first photo of the AeAe they have pictured is actually a photo of Canna Stuttgart..............LOL

The writer must have worked for the New York Times. Accuracy is inconsequential.

Their wrong pic of the Hua Moa is followed by the correct foto which is labeled popoulu which is the Hawian name for the group that the chicken egg belongs to. Uhhhhhhhh..........Who's on first?

Saw some reference to We be bonaners - that's good.

Thought of renaming my D la L thread so no one can do a search on the name and steal the pic.

Maybe --- "Ratil ra Rima" ala Elmer Fudd.

That's what bugs me the most...when they steal a photo for a site with bad, misleading, or inaccurate information. Sadly, when they take photos without permission they are usually the same folks who don't know what they are talking about. I love the images search option in Google because usually a website with a good photo has the best information but sometimes you see the same pic again and again and often you can figure out who stole the photo because they have no idea what they are talking about.

Consider these two statistics:
About 80% of the worldwide internet (web page) readership is in China.
About 50% of all web page authorships are by high-school students.

Taken together, it appears to be an unintentional campaign of misinformation.
