Dear Colleague, This is just my opinion, no offense intended. First, have in mind, that we are all human, we all make mistakes. Sometimes, ws are reported by mistake. If you ask nicely, in an educated way, you will get a response and given a reason why it was reported, or the moderators will have a second look, maybe it �s Ok, and they will put your ws back. I think there is no need to use inappropriate words. Firstly, let �s show our education. We �re "teachers"... we have to be a model for our ss, good or bad we are a model. If you are not a teacher, and you are a student, just as well, as a student, you have to learn that if we want respect, we have to respect.
 
Just my opinion. Hope you have a great day...

Your wss were reported because (according to the reporter) the pictures are taken from The New Oxford Picture Dictionary page 17 and 28.

Mary-butterfly,
you shouldn �t complain about the moderator �s work. It is not our fault you broke the rules. We only do our job trying to keep the site clean and going. Your wss were removed because they were watermarked pictures so it �s only right someone reported them and they were removed.

I am really disappointed when I see members who broke the rules complaining. And all you had to do was to read the rules properly. Unhappy

I didn �t think Mary-butterfly was complaining?!?! She just expressed that her work was also reported, and she just corrected it... did I misinterpret? Confused

@Sexybomber - intriguing name. I ask since it might be a mishearing of, say, �sex-bomb �. Which, of course, ties in with your obvious mishearing of the expletive-phrase in your last sentence. This is one of the reasons I �m always a bit chary of teaching what Mark Twain euphemistically called �cuss-words � to smart-a**e students who one day may become teachers themselves. Even the smallest mistake - like yours - can magnify the embarrassment factor in the wrong context - like here, for example. 

As I �ve said here before, swearing is an art form in itself and should be treated with some respect. If you do nothing else today, at least try to google your last phrase and see what sort of hits you get. Hell, you might even find what you actually wanted to say!

EDIT: nice one, �bomber; you�ve completely changed your original post, so almost everything that came after makes no sense whatsoever. You are a piece of work, aren�t you?

Sexybomber, you have NO RIGHT WHATSOVER to redistribute the picture. Paying for the book does not mean the content becomes your intellectual property. That would be like buying a Mercedes and selling the content of the handbook as yours or the design of the car as yours. You did not think of the content or design, hence you do no own it, you only have permission to use it.
