It is done!

UPDATE!  it is done.  i do believe I have successfully deleted my MySpace profile and page.  It took some doing (I had to do it in the Italian language – you got me – go figure) but I do believe the deletion was successful.  Yay God.  Now I don’t have to wrestle with that on my poor conscience.  :-)

ORIGINAL POST FOR TODAY:  I think I’m going to die of a guilty conscience now.  We’ve been learning about copyright infringement and plagiarism in my online class.  My MySpace page is FULL is graphics that I am using and that others haveposted in their comments that I know I haven’t asked permission to use.  Whaaaa….  I don’t want to die of a guilty conscience of be guilty of copyright infringement or plagiarism. do I fix this wrong on my MySpace page?  There are SO MANY graphics on it!  I could delete the whole page I guess and not use MySpace anymore.  What to do?  I don’t know what to do.  I don’t know who created the graphics so how can I ask permission to use them?  It’s been decided on in class that if it’s not your work, just don’t use it…but I have SO MANY that I do use.  I do have a note at the bottom of my page acknowledging and thanking the unknown artists.  I’m open to suggestions.  I think the best resolve for this problem would be to just delete my MySpace page.  What do you think? 

I do have a lot of MySpace friends but I really haven’t had anytime hardly since I’ve started school to even tend to the page much less interact with my friends.  :-(   I’m sad.  I don’t want to lost my page.  I don’t want to stop using those cool images.  I have no control over the graphics that my friend’s use when they leave comments.  They very well could be the artists themselves.  How would I know except for to ask each one individually before allowing them to post?  Whaaaa…..  This must be dealt with because I know its just not right to use other people’s work without their permission – at least now I know and I’m convinced of it.  :-(    I must make this wrong right and that soon!

Well, pray for me as I am praying for myself for God to have me deal with this situation wisely and in a timely fasion.  I hope and pray everyone is having a good day and that if it’s your will, no one is using your work without permission, especially me!

Peace and love, Out!  Linda
