The point I feel strongly about is not that I would be unwilling to give my amateur work away but were I to do so I take the bread from the mouth of a professional.<br />I get requests and as I can't stop folk pinching low res internet images don't even try. I do not like them messing with them and I do expect a credit. I use free stuff but always acknowledge it on my videos even though it takes thirty minutes to give them a credit, it's just good manners. I ask other bloggers for use of their images but give them a plug as well.ADRIANhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07113961163396562781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8060152237863452651.post-4439122070969359882015-10-05T06:42:48.127+01:002015-10-05T06:42:48.127+01:00Bill, I used to donate to several charities but go...Bill, I used to donate to several charities but got sick of being pestered by post, email and phone for further contributions.

I have (more than once) wanted to ask if other purveyors producing goods and services for charitable events were offered similar terms. <br />Love the photos!

The email was on behalf of the Operations Executive so I decided to investigate and came to the conclusion he was being paid excessively. Far too much as he couldn't even be rude himself but left it to one of his lackeys.<br />Run by volunteers is fine but most of these charities are not charities as I understand it. Many private health hospitals, The Royal Opera, National Trust, all commercial operations avoid tax by being registered as charities as do Public Schools. It needs a good looking at.ADRIANhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07113961163396562781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8060152237863452651.post-71853585142254146402015-10-04T16:27:07.832+01:002015-10-04T16:27:07.832+01:00I'll do my best, the weather has broken and so...I'll do my best, the weather has broken and so it may be a wet week.ADRIANhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07113961163396562781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8060152237863452651.post-20315435177288964482015-10-04T16:26:23.606+01:002015-10-04T16:26:23.606+01:00Linda, i ask what size image they want and then ch...Linda, i ask what size image they want and then charge what the stock agencies charge.

I agree with you absolutely. If you had chosen to make a donation then that's up to you. Charities are on my irksome list at the moment and I have already stopped my donations to one because, despite requests, it would not stop calling me on my cellphone (which, unlike my sousaphone, doesn't block calls except from known contacts). I have been quite happy to donate photos to a couple of small charities in NZ which were run by volunteers.
