VENT!! What do people NOT understand about "it's illegal!"
She stated, "Oh just google the topic and use the pucs you find there." My reply was, "umm those are usually copyrighted." She said, "nah, everyone uses them unless it states they are copyrighted."
I patiently tried to explain that was not the case but decided I would try for pics in the public domain or from my own clipart service I use. SO I asked her were the URL was going to be? Where would I upload the pics. She said, "oh just use the URL from the web." So first we are stealing images and then bandwidth. ARRRGgh.
I pointed out this was illegal. ANd which point she pointed out that I was being hired to write that the legal end was her problem. After all my name was not going to be on it so what did it matter? That the legality of all of this was frankly, none of my business.
Is it me? I am stunned that someone would take this attitude. I told her I would finish this original project for her but she would have to find pictures herself. That my integrity was very important to me and I was probably the wrong person for her to work with.
I am working hard to establish myself in the article/rewriting business. I have been writing for years and never been ashamed of anything my name has been on, or anything I have written if my name wasn't on it. I am NOT going to start now.
ARRGGHHHH.... end of vent... I feel better now lol!
