the whole site was taken off when they called, it was a dead one anyway we just left it going for the heck if it cause we use the email servers this way or another so we can't sell the domains / servers lol.
to mike, I have thought the same thing, but i've read more than 4 articles that shows the absolute opposite, the law system back those people up in every way possible, those company's won over 90% of the cases in court. and it might not be a civile suit since we're talking about breaking the copyright laws (Even though it was unawarely and we took off the picture immediantly), thus for 600$ I dont think its a good idea to even take the chance to lose a lot more :S
I just wanted to warn peoples that this kind of stuff is being done, and I don't mean suits for breaking copyrights by copying materials, I mean suits for doing simple things like using some picture you found on google in its picture search (And don't tell me everyone knows that its not safe, a lot of site makers use couple of pictures from google to make a logo here and there, they just take the none-copyrighted pictures from dead sites or un-copyrighted sites).
I hope you get the whole point here lol, thanks for the advices though mike you'r a good fella

To general, I know you like being an idiot and try to start a flame with me in every post I am.
I also realize it IS hard for you to comprehend clean english, so let me clarify once more what I have said earlier to you, It's totaly stupid to STATE THE OBVIUS, my friend, the one who is being forced to pay, is only being forced to pay because that in bottom line it IS his fault, so what was the point of you'r post saying "you'r fault"? lol...
And also, no, I don't run the off-topic here, I do believe however that I have the premittion to run MY OWN threads unless they are illegal ones.
So if don't like my posts, don't reply to them instead of just spamming.
