OH JESUS.....NANA U MY FRIEND 4 LIFE!....

Why ruin the photos with that obtrusive "www.prince.org" across the middle? They arent even rare pics! What, youre claiming screencaps from the Purple Rain movie? Jesus, get a grip.

Annoying isnt it? and no - Im just making a point actually.

No - Im not claiming anything - even tho it was indeed I (4 your information), that was the one the spent hours of my time screen-capping, resizing, and posting those Purple Rain pix 4 your viewing pleasure - but dont let that bother u none, as I dont care where they come from.

My point is that with certain other sites claiming 'exclusivity' of many pix, it has now snowballed 2 apoint where pics are supposedly not allowed 2 be posted anywhere else - it aint about jealousy (they're just f*cking pix 4 God's sake!) but they SHOULD be shared freely 4 ALL 2 see. Legally, it's a grey area, and I dont see why one site should have any special treatment over another. It certainly shouldnt be an 'us and them' mentality - but sadly, that is what it has come down to. If there are pics taken by fans, and u know who they are - then fine, credit them, if u know who has taken an official photo (Jeff Katz, Allen Beulieu etc etc, then credit them - but most of the time, these pics are found on the net, with no acreditation. The essence of the internet is by its very nature inscetuous - not sharing pix because of a silly, petty little ruling wont change a damned thing.

There is much more 2 this train of thought - but Im currently stoking my engines, It'll all come out in the wash in time. Be patient.

PS: If u wanted the pix without our new 'exclusive' watermark - u had but 2 org note me...

'Buddy'.
