Goodness if all the copied images were taken off all the web sites there
would be a lot of gaps in the pages we all browse. How many of us have
desktop back grounds that we borrowed off a web site.
Then in this case with Roy giving credit to the cartoonist, thats free
advertising.
But your case is that the borrowing of a cartoon image discredits Linux
advocates? I can't see the link myself.
