Can we all take care not to include any images subject to copyright on this site please.

There is an existing discussion about Medal Index Cards from Ancestry - please see that thread for clarification.

I have also seen images from ScotlandsPeople reproduced here - please DO NOT use these on this site. These are crown copyright and should not be reproduced. Transcriptions from the original images are fine, but not the original images.

If there is wording on an image you are having trouble deciphering, then make this known to people and indicate that you can send an image via email.

I have seen other sites get into difficulties after posting copyright images - I want to avoid this at all costs.
