Creative Commons Licenses Are Not A License To Steal

Come on, Rich, if you had bothered to ask my permission to use my photo as your site header I wouldn't be posting this. And no, saying my site has cool photos (or apologising after the fact) is no excuse.

In case you don't know, the Creative Commons License this site is published under expressly forbids re-publishing my photos without due credit and modifying them. So I'd appreciate it if you'd remove the following cropped image from your site:

Thanks.

Update: Rich has replaced his site header (and apologised) The matter is settled, but the post stays as a deterrent to future re-enactments. And yes, I often give permission - all you need to do is ask.
