Scanned??
 
 
 
If follow the link  you can see part of my class . you can see some pictures of my class .
I spent last weekend taking photos of some of  them , because they are really beautiful and propper for children , I transfered them from my camera to my pc  I changed the format and reduced de size to share them with you .
Yesterday when I came from work , I found that they had had a lot of downloads and many people thanked for them , I was really happy when I saw I had a lot of points later , wowww it was great , ...but today when I entered here  my printables had been been removed , because the administration and the moderators thought that they had  been scanned , so they were a copy .I had lost my printables and my points . It�s really incredible !!!!!
 Those pictures are mine , if someone has them now it is because I wanted to share them with you . Is it possible that the administration take a wrong decision based on ..."scanned" ...?Was it so difficult  sending a message to me to ask about what they were coming from? Why was it easier thinking that it was a copy? A copy of what ? Had they found the original? that is impossible because they are  in my class , it was impossible before I uploaded that nobody could find the original . 
Can�t I scan an own drawing? although they weren�t scanned . This website is made of all our constributions , I  think it is not good that a group of persons take decisions without asking about that first.
 I still think this site is great , that is why I was happy to share some of  the material I have to teach English , I read all the rules here and when I had a doubt I asked about that , just to do the thing as they are ruled , What did I do wrong? 
 I didn�t scan anything

Dear sndrsp,

I must admit I vote for removal some of them too.  Please understand, there are loads of people uploading stolen and scanned wss it is sometimes really hard to decide. I am sorry but it would be good to  write into description you are the creator and this wouldn �t happen.

But nothing is lost. You can send PM to Victor and ask for restoring the pictures (and also the points). I will do it straight after sending this. And please, after your wss will be restored, write a short notice about you creating them yourself so another reports will be prevented.

My apologies and hugs, MichaelaHug

I didn �t vote yesterday because I thought that they were classroom posters that you photographed... Good work, by the way. Send a pm to Victor and I believe everything is going to be solved. Hugs from Portugal, Carla

Many people don �t understand the difference between �scanned � & stolen....

Follow Michaela �s advice & make sure you write that you are the creator of the items. Email Victor or just reupload them.

Regards,
AB

Dear sndrsp, I was the one who wrote - that maybe you drew them yourself, but it didn �t help - I am sorry.

You see - the majority of moderators cannot even imagine that ESL teacher can draw herself/himself!!!

I like your contributions...

Hope Victor will answer you.

just specify that they are not stolen, but your original work.

Scanning is a legitimate process to use. Stealing is not!

I really wish people here would get there heads around that...

thanks for your answers , some of you have been very comprehensive, In spite of what other are saying I think there was no reason for doing that , I pm Victor , and everythig is the same , . yesterday my worksheet was having a fast number of downloads , I think I reached 240 points , I don�t remember exactly  ,imagine if that or thos printables had spent one day more here ....wow I may have duplicated my points? I don�t want to be sarcastic , but why  do I have to pay for others�mistakes ? Why do they  promise why they  don�t like giving?
