    I also noticed they borrowed a couple of pictures from my website!
    Wow - that's not very cool of them to do without permission.

    Yeah, I guess. I suppose I would have liked someone to ask me first, but I've told them to keep them on as the STA is a charity and not a commercial venture.

    Kudos to you, sir, for being a good sport about it. I had someone steal one of my personal photos once, and use it for selling a similar item on the internet. Granted, that was for their profit and not a charitable/nonprofit venture, but it infuriated me.

    I just hope it doesn't turn around on you, where people accuse you of being the one who 'borrowed' their images and thus staining your reputation. Do you think the STA would be willing to give you recognition for the pics? Perhaps with a small caption saying "courtesy of Keltoi Gaelic Clothing"?

    I've noticed a lot of other vendors putting watermarks on their images for this very reason. That's not a bad idea.
