myfs_150094 Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 Dear Cecil Lee,Sorry about the last message that I have posted. I did not know that the photo which I have cropped from the street directory map might cause unnecessary potential legal problem. I have learned my lesson from that incident. Therefore, please accept my sincere apology to geomancy.net and the rest of the viewers and fans that support this forum.I will be more careful in future when dealing with pictures from authority website. Sorry once again.Yours Sincerely,Lex Tan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Cecil Lee Posted June 5, 2011 Staff Share Posted June 5, 2011 Don't worry, no harm done. Thanks for your kind understandingJust that in the past, that of all the website you had extracted the image; that specific website used to be quick on the draw and I understand had used lawyers to sue quite alot of people who simply used their map to guide potiential clients to their location.This is the main reason why, I never like using "streetdirectory.com" map as an educational tool in-case one inadvertently forgot to give them a credit despite such things as "Fair usage" concept.
