I saw my pictures posted (under your names) on Ellie Mae's bored. If you are going to steal these pictures, the least you can do is crop them and make them your own. I spent a great deal of time acquiring these pictures, scanning them, and watermarking them. Please do not take any pictures from this site. Evidently, you come over here to and steal, and take them back to Ellie Mae's site. that's what's wrong with Black folks in the first place...always giving something to white folks! Keep your thieving asses from over here!

Jill, don't say that. Then you'll be accused of keeping shit up, being negative, arguing, bickering & a whole slew of accusations from people who start(s) this mess in the first place! You can never win! That's why I'm spent because you'll end up with the raw end of the deal. Contrary to popular belief, all of this is unnecessary drama doesn't make me feel good at all & just wish people would leave others alone! Like I once said on the old Imusic board, I have nothing to gain & everything to lose. I did not lie! Have a great day everybody & keep your head up!

SEAIN at this point I really don't give a PHUCK what any of "them" say about me, think of me or PERCEIVE me to be B'COS I don't live my life on what OTHER people perceive of me or perceive me to be. This is only a message board for me and for those who would like to think I am a "shyt starter" so be it. I never have started anything, I never have INTENTIONALLY tried to hurt anyone ALTHOUGH it was done to me. Okay, so whatever they think of me is cool b'cos I don't phuck none of them nor do I phuck with none of them. AHite I'm out PEACE!...

That is why I stated that people should just leave people alone. I don't go out my way to hurt anyone either but anyway......hope this can be resolved without any unnecessary drama. That's all I'm sayin.

Seain...don't worry...it won't be any unnecessary drama! It just pisses me off when I go thru the trouble to acquire pictures...scan, crop, and frame, and watermark them and someone comes over and take them and posts them at Ellie Mae's site like they were theirs. They need to go out and get their own pics or at least crop the frame off...it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that out. I noticed the number of views this post has...evidently they have been over here but have not said nary a word! It just pisses me off that they put them on Ellie Mae's site like they were theirs. Lot of nerve? Yeah, Jill...like I wouldn't find out. I see one of the posters even has that squashed down picture of Eddie as an avatar. It must be some of her latest recruits. The exact same post have been posted year after year...different posters that's all. Soon, they will eventually get tired and move on and replacements will come and Ellie Mae will continue to manipulate her sheep!

Just saying. You know, that's why I've been kinda of reluctant to throw any pics up because I noticed that not only pics, but topics are "lifted" as well. At least give credit that you got it somewhere else. That's what I do anytime I see anything of interest, I state I got it from another board. I never take people's pics, which is why I'm definitely feeling you about having them snatched like that. We don't get the pics for free. I wanted to send you some R&B pics, even with Eddie but now, seeing this type of nonsense, I've changed my mind. My mom was right when she said "Evil is reigning". So true!

Give credit where credit is due! I don't think that the young ladies meant any harm,they are TEMPTATIONS fans and young at that. You have some great photos on this board,I got some too. If and when I post them,I HOPE people will see them and like them well enough to tell others. The only way I would call it stealing is if I saw them on 125 street ,selling them,which they would not do. They are just Temptations fans like me & you. They want to know the real deal,not the mini-series crap!

First of all, welcome (((Ruffside)))! Great to have you here! My name is SeainDennis aka Common. I also have the bubonic plague! JUST KIDDING! ;D Seriously, you just hit on something that I've pointed out: give credit where it's due. The problem is that people who have their own sites, try to keep them as original as possible. Which is why they go through the trouble of re-sizing & "marking" them so people wouldn't lift them. Speaking for myself, I would be happy to give someone a pic if only you ASK ME! It's a matter of respect. Let me give me another instance: Have you ever been to Salina's "Tempt 4ever" site? As you can tell, she is a diehard Tempts fan, so collects & buys EVERYTHING Tempts. She also offers fans pics as long as they asked for permission. Sure, there are some pics that people already have or are already circulating on the net. But when you literally take a pic WITHOUT asking, that's where conflict occurs because it is not easy obtaining some of these pics. Alot come from magazines, not only books, which, can cost a pretty penny. Now, you say you have pics & maybe it may not bother you if someone came & lifted it. But, as I love to say, everyone's temperament is different & people, like Fast & myself, try hard to stay as original as possible. Sorry if the post is longwinded but I hope you got my point. And I think it's WONDERFUL that there are young fans out there & I really don't think they meant any harm but in the future, they just should be courteous & just ask! Okay, my sermon is done! LOL!

Thanks. I know that there are a lot of pictures floating aruond on the internet,so is it possible that they used the same source as you did to get the pictures? (Ebay?) Or they had the copy of Right On,that the picture of Rick James and his birthday cake comes from.

Oh my goodness, you was a Rick Fan too?? ;D LOL! I thought I was the only Punk Funk Princess around here! ;D Yeah, that's where that pic was from. Yes, sometimes, the pics come from ebay. 45's w/ picture sleeves, mags, books, promo pics, etc.

Did you steal that from me ?
