Indeed, but as an author you know it's correct. I could post an excerpt of your work under fair use
but legally not the whole thing.
How's that cold coming along?
Yeah but if I posted my entire damn novel online and you went ahead and copied it all over the place, nobody would be to blame except my own damn self. Lol.

i have seen my pix all over holy hell. maybe i should make some citizens arrests.
go for it. I can copy it for personal..use...but can't distribute it, especially not for personal gain.
Anyway, Kelli. I just stopped in to say "hi". I'm out of here for now.
Don't want to disturb anybody.

Watch, some dipshit will end up putting this image on a box mod now :)

If you have a picture that's soooo special to you that you do not want it copy/pasted somewhere else on the Internet then don't put it on the Internet.

I have been to quite a few artist pages who show off images but the right click copy feature is removed and a pop up appears stating the image is copyrighted and can be purchased upon request.

This does not mean that a smart person who is an asshole can't just click the inspect element feature somewhere else on the page and download it anyway.

Basically I keep my personal pics personal.

Even on facebook I have scans of xrays of my 3rd hip replacement that looks like total shit and half of the bone is missing.
If i get into a conversation with someone about it i will unlock the set of pics from "just me" to "public" just for long enough for me to link them to the pics and they can see how fucked up it is. Then i lock the pics back down after they look at them.

Anything posted on this forum is fair game i'm afraid so just pretend like what ever pics you post will be taken by other members each and every time.

That way you can hold back and NOT post pics you want private.

Sure but it's understood that even if you were such an idiot the copyright is assumed under law.
Therefore if I re-posted the whole damn novel
I would be in violation of copyright law. Of course, you'd never be so foolish. LOL

Obviously it's not understood or people wouldn't go around copying things. If you post anything on the internet without including clear copyright notices, you're pretty much saying it's fair game.

If this is in reference to the posted pixes, a personal pix when posted to the net regardless
of where remains the author's possession and to re-post w/o permission is a violation of copyright law.
The author need not state © when pix or written work is posted, it is automatically assumed.

So, VU staff and moderators could legally repost your stuff as long as used in a way connected with this service, but not us mere users. Of course enforcement is another thing altogether.

Ok, never-the-less doing so (copying w/o permission) is illegal.
And I didn't post any damn pictures. Just explaining the law for anybody who might want to know why the OP is pissed.
see ya.

Actually if you want to see the most fucked up left hip and femur that you will ever see someone walking on daily feel free to look at what is supposed to last a 39 year old guy forever.

The 3rd hip replacement is the final hip replacement with the science we have today.

I am just hoping science and medicine improves before this crazy looking thing gets any worse



EDIT: posted a couple pics below. its easier that way.

It isn't even the legality, but common courtesy on a forum. As soon as I upload a pic on a host it is on the net, but when one reposts it on the same forum, it is in bad taste...

I know why op is pissed and i wouldn't be happy either.
if they ended up on some other forum then it is what it is but to repost to a different thread within minutes of OP posting.
Yes that seems assholeish to me as well.

Yea, you're correct. It's not understood by the myriad buffoons on the net.
But lawyers certainly do understand the law. You don't need to state copyright
or register copyright, it's automatically assumed.
Recall, ignorance of the law is not an excuse.

Anyway, See ya. Hope your cold gets better

Excellent advice, thank you, sick. And I am sorry about that hip replacement. There's no excuse; hips are easier than knees, shoulders and most other joints. If you should ever have to look into something like that again consider New England Baptist Hospital. They come from all over the world for joint replacement here. Dr. Stephen Murphy is the hip specialist premier!

2 centimeters from punching out of me knee:
The orthopedic surgeon said thats the furthest down he has ever seen one seat out of over 1000 that he had done.
He specializes in removing infected hips and killing the superbug then putting new hips back in.

Oh dear god, I'm not a doctor but I've seen my friend's x-rays, post surgery, and it does not look like this. Where did you have this done? and who did it? I don't know where you live but please search up New England Baptist Hospital. They are known the world over for joint replacement. Promise me you will, at least, do that.

Hey guys look at this BULLSHIT propaganda that I just came across claiming someone died of lung cancer due to vaping.

http://timesnewz24.com/news/40-e-ci...tim-after-teen-boy-dies-from-lung-cancer.html

irresponsible and sensationalistic "journalism" at its worst. the headline
E-cigarette kills first victim after teen boy dies from lung cancer
is totally unproven. Thousands of people who never smoked die of lung cancer. healthy people die of heart attacks. people just die.

The article is completely made up. Even the photo is bullshit. If he's dying of lung cancer why is his head wrapped up? Someone thought this would be funny but it's disgusting.

My 2nd hip replacement was really nice. too bad i caught a hospital born superbug and went through 2 years of torture and nearly death.
The real doctor i was sent to by ambulance was at the best infected joint replacement team in all of Florida.
When i had the hip with the superbug there was 3 separate times when the infection appeared to go away after 40 days of IV antibiotics.
As soon as i was taken of the antibiotics the thigh area would start to swell up and it would eventually burst open.
During this time i saw things that no human should see. it would burst open spewing out orange fluid mixed with dead flesh, bone, black blood clots, etc...
The 2nd and 3rd time this happened i took pictures as it happened so the doctor would believe it happened how i said it happened.
There was a time when i was grabbing handfuls of dead flesh and bone coming out of the quarter sized hole that the fluid blew out of.
I put a few handfuls of this stuff on my bathroom counter top.

It took a year and a half of torture from the original doctor that put in the infected hip to finally admit defeat and send me somewhere that would actually solve my problem.

it got so bad my temperature would dip down to 95.5 and go up to 105.3 in a matter of 2 minutes.
it would make my lips and fingertips numb and make me start shivering like i was out in below zero temperatures.
I was in central Florida and was in a sweat suit laying in my front lawn in August when it was 100 degrees outside just so i could get my teeth to stop chattering.

Finally I got so pissed off i went to the original doctors office and told him if he didn't send me somewhere that could actually help me my mother assured them she would sue the shit out of everybody in that building if i died.
I WAS going to die if i didn't get his diseased hip out of me.

I had SEVERE bone loss and celulitis along with 5 dime to quarter size holes that constantly leaked orange fluid on my thigh throughout the ordeal.

My advice DO NOT EVER GO TO SOUTH LAKE HOSPITAL FOR ANYTHING IN CENTRAL FLORIDA.
AVOID DR. JAMES M. RAY AT ANY COST.

The 1st xray the whiter bone on the right is a cadaver (came from a dead person) bone.

That's pretty horrible. I almost lost my right leg years ago due to a Strep A infection. It just blew up and exploded at the top of my inner thigh. I was in the emergency room dying, delirious. When they finally saw me they called a surgeon, anesthesiologist, and infection specialist. They dug it out. It had started necrotizing and killing the flesh around the wound. They didn't know what it was right away, so had me in isolation and pumped me with antibiotics. 2 days later, surgery again to dig more out- almost down to the bone. It was on the inside fleshy part of my thigh. Anywhere else, it would have gotten to the bone. A week later I went home with the wound open, but packed in silver impregnated foam with a drape and wound vac. Every 2 days for 2 weeks I had to go to the wound center to have them pull out the foam, which was stuck to growing tissue and pack it again. The Vicodin and Percocet made me loopy, so I just took the pain. A month later it was completely closed up, tissue healed and good as new, except for a 6 inch scar.
