"Also, just imagine if you spent a lot of time on an illustration and someone else used it without your permission. You might not like that. I have used lots of artists ´ work in my wss. I always ask their permission. Only one has ever refused and to my shame, I sent him a nasty email in response"

The vast majority of teachers who post their worksheets here do that just because they want to get new points so that they can download others � worksheets. There are some diligent teachers like @yingwenlaoshi . They simply don �t need any new points. They �ve got thousands of points that they can download any worksheet they like. They do not have any commercial interests while posting new worksheets. For that matter, most of the teachers here sometimes use pictures copyrighted by more than 10 artists on the same paper. We are legally bound to ask their permission but we do know that most people don �t bother or don �t have the time to ask each one of them. Sharing is simply caring. As long as a teacher do not turn that into some commercial money-grabbing interest, it �s OK with me. I respect moderators � hard work but there are people who report more worksheets that they �ve already contributed. If those people spent the same time on preparing new worksheets, it would a lot better for the community:)
