Does this include Hungarian people? Or is it just for scenic shots or pics of something interesting reflecting Hungarian culture?

Like this you mean? Although there's a bit more to it now.


I've decided that I'm not going to create a distillery as it's a lot of work and I can legally buy házi pálinka for less than 2000 huf per litre so at the moment it's not worth it. Maybe when I retire

If it sinks then someone needs to show interest and add a photo.
Post your photos anyway you want. That is fine

I can see that personal photos are the way to go to make the thread.....personal.

However, BE users post photos and pictures off the internet all the time without problems. Heck, look at the avatars for starters. So I don't think copyright would be an issue. Just be sensible. If a photo is a prob. a moderator can sort that.

It is irresponsible for a moderator to even tacitly suggest that the breaching of copyright is acceptable, whilst I am not naive enough to think that it won't happen however it should be stated, if only for the protection of this site hosting that all content posted should be done so in a legal manner.

At current exchange rate that makes a litre of Palinka £5 !

You have misunderstood. I am not at all suggesting breaching copyright at all. What I have stated is that photos & pictures are freely available over the internet. Note that not everything is copyrighted.

As I wrote BE users post pictures and photos all the time. Just be sensible. Obviously if a photo is attributed you don't use it do you. BE is full of picture and photo threads. None that I know of in the past ten years have posed a problem.

If Internet Brands ever started to see an issue , they would flag it so I think we can all feel safe with that.

Any problems with copyright I'll send her round to sort them out!!

By the way how do you get a picture full size up here as per the cellar above without using dropbox or alike. I only know how to get thumbnails attached

BEVS

BE only allows for thumbnail size attachments, although those do enlarge a bit if you click on them.

If you want a larger photo/picture , then you have to use a third party like photobucket or similar. You then use then click the picture icon and paste in the url.

That is a rather beautiful horse.

All photographic works are subject to copyright protection under treaty 2 of the Berne Convention, WIPO-Administered Treaties: Berne Convention for the Protection of Literary and Artistic Works whether they are attributed or not. The only person that can permit the use of a picture is a copyright holder and unless a contract is in place that states other wise that person is always the photographer. There are things like 'creative commons' that photographers and other artists can assign to that define how a photograph can be used and form in some form a legal contract with the user.

'Internet brands' are well aware of the risk of using images of questionable sources.

However most of them disappear quietly when companies settle out of court and subject the plaintiff to a contract that ensures they keep quiet on the settlement and the figure. I personally have never had to issue 'court proceedings' but have received settlements!

But enough of that can we have the thread and start oooing and aaaahhing at peoples photos, my favourite waste of time is trawling through piccies on the tinterweb

Peter_in_Hungary

Yes and it don't half hurt if you leave your foot under hers!!

Looks like the start of something to me Agree with the amount of work it takes, two years of making wine was enough for me seeing as our neighbour sold 2l for 600ft - red or white.

Sorry to mention copyright everyone, I was just thinking of an old user Joe who used to take wonderful photos but had the local tourist board use one of her photos in their brochure - I think they eventually credited her for it but it just came to mind so I thought I would add it in

Sue

Ummm I'm not sure what the big deal is. One takes a picture of something that they think is pretty cool in Hungary, and they think "I'm going to post that on BE for other to see", and then they post pic .... simples

Come on folks, lets see what you've got

PaulinEger

we need somewhere to post them first :P

Rural Hungary

I'm on the case

Okay, you can start adding them here
