Hi Seth
Thanks for the response! The backgroung pics I mentioned are the landscape
photos from the themes. Is there a way to tell if a photo is PD or GPL
without running down the maker (some photos have no author)? Is it correct
that PD means no copyright limintations and GPL means free except for
commercial use?
