I think Jim had a good time, hopefully he returns for more discussion. His ever varying animated scroll now includes several Ha Ha Ha!s after mention of our city. I'm thinking this is a good sign.

Submitted by emmettoconnell on Wed, 02/22/2006 - 6:08am."The image has the copyright embedded in the photoshop file information" doesn't make any sense to me .

(Rick, is there any way to edit meeples comment to remove the f-bomb? No offense, meeples, but I would like olyblog to remain somewhat child safe).

There's actually more to the story. Google makes money from their service, thus limiting their ability to display copyrighted material. OlyBlog isn't making a profit and, in a court, would probably be found to be within "fair use."
