if people love the images so much they will steal/copy them from wherever
they appear be it on the net or on a bottle or in a shop window or in a
catalogue.
i used to make some sort of living (or at least be paid money for) paintings
etc, but they were a foot or bigger in size, any images i have on the www
range from 200px wide upwards at 72dpi, if people want to steal such little
things then so be it, i have the originals, and any re-use of tiny images
was just good promotion for moi.
