Long before I found this site or used PS, I collected pictures from the web for my screensavers & wallpaper. I now find that I want to "play" with a few of them and post them here but have either no idea of the author or just a screen name. What can I ethically do... use them or not? Decia

at a guess I'd say not, there are however, plenty of resources available on the net for you to download images for manipulation - such as the stock exchange.

decia, how did you save the images when you downloaded them?

if you didn't rename them, the author's name will be in the file name

ah… sorry, missed that part.

well… if you can't get back to the site that you downloaded them from… and you can't get the author's name or permission… sorry, you can't use em. you'd be running a wide risk of copyright violation and they don't accept "I didn't know how to find you" as an excuse. lol.

as Phil said, try Stock Exchange for images you can play with.
