Dear Sir I appreciate you cannot be here in Turkey to see our yacht yourself but we would appreciate that rather than download our website pictures and then put them on yacht-forums, please just add the link !! Our crew spend a lot of time taking photo's and trying to make a cool website (done in our own time) and its a bit unfair that you just remove them without asking. Any questions you are welcome to ask but please stop copying our photos Jed White, C.Eng. S.Y.Maltese Falcon |

Jed, I just returned your e-mail. Thank you for being so understanding. The images of Falcon have been removed and replaced with a link. We must ALL exercise prudence and good judgement when posting images. If in doubt, just post a link to images. On this subject... often links and images around the internet are disabled for various reasons, i.e. outdated info, change of DNS, or someone simply forgot to pay the electric bill. Because these links (or images) are a relavent part of our discussions, it would be preferable for the images to be posted to YF because they will become permanently archived. HOWEVER, when images are proprietary to a site, or a person, we must respect their intended use and NOT duplicate or distribute w/o permission. YachtLuver certainly did not mean any harm. He's an enthusiast that is very excited about the Falcon project. We greatly appreciate when members share news. It not only benefits the community, it benefits the industry. Again, let's all try exercise good judgement when posting images. Thanks! |

Hi Jed, I respect your opinion. But like Carl said with links and updating a website... Maybe I have a compromise: Posting pictures with the URL on the photo. What do you think about?  Peace, René |

LOL Peace.  I was going to suggest the same... archive the pic on the YF server by attaching it here, but post a direct link to the page where it came from so nobody can question ownership of the photo.

Good suggestion guys. This is the safe & proper thing to do. Still, we just have to use common sense and respect the wishes of others. BTW... I just received an e-mail from Jed. Everything's OK. He's REALLY a nice guy! Matter of fact, we may have the privilege of learning more details about the Falcon through him. As you can imagine, he's pretty busy right now, but once the Falcon is sailing smoothly (pun intended), he might have time to share some insight and answer some questions. |

I think the suggestion to put a link beside the photo is a really good one. But also one of the great features of the internet is to promote a subject. You do that by MULTIPLE LINKS, then lots of different hits brings one to an adjoining subject. I would think multiple links to their website would be more advantagous than claiming proprietary rights to photos. Quote:
I would suggest to jediwhite that they post some really interesting stories, and even more details & photos to their website, and then link it to Yachtforums.com, BoatDesign.net, and maybe a few other forums. That should really get their traffic up....hope they have a server capable of handling it. And think about this. If we don't keep coming up with new material and photos etc, to add to this thread, this subject thread will die out along with its 3800 plus viewers, and we will be onto other subjects, leaving the Maltese site to find its own viewers individually. | ||

I love this Freivokh design. The over/under mirror treatment of the long side windows is spectacular. http://www.freivokh.com/page/testcy Click on 256' motor yacht at left. |
