I like how you reverse what I proved others do but its ok,because I can' t do it right. Yet you did no research it takes up time so why bother right?
Don' t bother replying unless you can prove you did your research and put your friendships aside to be constructive, then maybe but don' t bother get a good night' s rest.

Whenever people post pics for the first time from a new breeder they give props to the breeder, which most people do. You, unlike most post pics whenever your snakes move, eat, crap or has a different light on them. Quite honestly most of us don't care to see a thousand pics of the same damn snake.
Since you mentioned Dan I'll use him as an example; he usually posts ~3 pics of a snake through their stay at his place. Everytime a pic is posted he will mention the original breeder, or breeder of the parents if his pic is of a baby, even if it is to show off the growth of the snake. You on the other hand find it necessary to post a pic of every non significant event. I think it's good practice to ALWAYS give credit where credit is due not only when it is benefiical to you.
BTW, Dan doesn't fear you; you give yourself way too much credit.

I think and know I explaining the copyright issue. But 1 day maybe someone will sell you animals from your own photos that were doctored up and are still in your collection. Maybe you don' t understand but if you look up all my photos they all carry my name to weed out these scammers, in the end a little photoshop can remove my name ot even better crop a photo and cut the name out, but I can still tell if its my animals some is stealing and ruining my name. In the end I can challenge them and prove myself after but showing the larger image and the one with my name. By doing this I feel I am helping the community single out the con artists in our hobby. Maybe you just don' t understand maybe I did not explain it better but as you see to explain it best I must write out these long replys. Because you do not know me and I do not think you ever met me or chatted with me, judging me is lame. You and others think gossip is the truth and only way to true information. I can ' t change your mind because that would mean I am trying to make you do something you don' t believe in. But if you wish to have an open mind - weed through the gossip and maybe do some reasearch.
 In a joking manner (key word - joking) you state you got promission for the avatar your using, great did you get a license release, was the lawyer charging a decent price. If you get my drift I can read more into something that is nothing I only wished you tried that before judging me. hope the smiley faces show its a joke.

Let's look at the facts:
You put YOUR copyright on photos that YOU didn't take.
I don't think this is even allowed if they sign a release as you are claiming you took the photo. They should have their own copyright on the photo.
As I said before when not using a photo for personal gain you only need consent. Like the consent I got from Kara at NERD when I wanted to use one of their pics for my avatar.
I realize there is a definite need to copyright photos so people don't steal them as you did.
BTW, you need to put a date (year is fine) on the copyright to validate it since a copyright is good for 50 years from when the photo was taken.
I didn't need gossip or BS to form my opinion of you, just the fact you steal pics was enough for me. If I wanted BS I would have contacted you directly.
Just to clarify cause you never seem to understand I will summarize the post in one line
YOU CAN'T COPYRIGHT A PHOTO YOU DIDN'T TAKE.
