That is copyright infringement.

No - I admit I need to be more diligent with regards to what you are talking about. I will have these issues addressed and fixed as expeditiously as possible.
I was not aware of "fair use" laws - I have followed links to recommended reading of "laws". This issue will be corrected.
However, it must be noted that the constant termination of suppliers is part of the problem of why it has not already fixed. It's a catch 22.
I join an AVS - get permission to use their graphics - then it is revoked and now I have to remove all those graphics too. I have had a problem keeping up.
I am truly trying to adjust the site to fit a more a "global" set of community standards while obeying the laws of various free countires of the world.
I admit to not being perfect - however - to be accepted in this community - perfection is required - and it shall be done.
I will search out links for USA, CANADA and the UNITED KINDOM and read up on "fair use" laws...
And I will post retractions if necessary or requested.
I will continue to do my best.
The first issue is getting my
[email protected] email address working which controls all my domains. Otherwise - I would already be working on the things - I learned in this newsgroup.

PS: I really got to scoot to work.
