OT-
As a graphic artist...this disturbed me...

"For those people having a Geocities website to show their graphic creations, this means Yahoo/Geocities now owns the copyrights to the work you struggled to create. For those with a nice family website on Geocities, this means you could see your families pictures appearing in ads for family abuse services, alcohol treatment centers, or any other ads that Yahoo/Geocities can sell the images for."

From the comp.graphics.apps.photoshop newsgroup


There is also people mad the Alta Vista has a photo finder button that snatches photos/artwork off of other people's websites.
The internet poses new problems for web designers and graphic artists...(sigh)
