@ lmigeon: The point is not whether you read the rules or you don �t. You �re sharing watermarked images which are obviously copyrighted and thus jeopardizing the work of hundreds of thousands of teachers globally because some people out there cherish their work and take copyright issues seriously. You wouldn �t want some author to report the site to google for breaching copyright laws, would you? And we �ve seen some authors come here and create an account with the sole purpose of starting a thread on the forum demanding their unlawuffully published images to be removed. You �d ask how do they know? well modern technology gives you a lot of options.
@Elodie: Keep up the good work but don �t take these things to heart especially on a hospital bed. Get well soon!

hello,
reading what I wrote last night, I do sound like a bitter old lady (my body feels like that of an 90-year-old but i don �t have to be mean and bitter right?)
this website is actually the only thing that keeps me thinking that i �m a teacher - i �m slowly giving up hope of seeing the inside of a classroom any time soon i �m afraid - that �s why i try to help as much as it helps me... surely that �s no reason to get upset other a few watermarked images! if it had been a plagiarized document, how would I have reacted? throwing my computer out of the window  ? (haven �t lost my sense of humor, thank god!  )
anyway, i �ll forgive and forget as long as lmigeon learns from her mistakes! that �s what we �re supposed to teach our kids, right? we �re only humans, we make mistakes, we only from them and get better!
Elodie
P.S.: have been in and out of the hospital for the past month, but the team of doctors here in Lyon is fantastic and really here to help me get better (and they have at heart to find out what �s wrong and to send me back home when i �m fully recovered), so it could be worse  i �m lucky i �m no longer living in the US, at least in France i know i won �t have to dread the arrival of hospital bills in a few months...

I was wondering how you did find so much time to dedicate yourself to check all those ww. I now understand better and feel very sorry for you. Being through a similar experience I can �t but wish you the best of recoveries and get back to what you used to do and were. Tanks a million for your dedication. Hugs !!!!!

Amazing how people always complain loudly and claim to be "innocent" when their work gets reported - instead of politely asking what might have been wrong with their worksheets....
