    I don't like watermarks. I didn't spent hours creating something just to place a fat notice over it. I therefore ask you kindly to respect my rights as an artist, and not use my images without my permission. I make a lot of resources available to my visitors for free, and you are always free to contact me for help. But don't rip me off. It's bad karma.
