    Gondor's soldiers looked like the Imperial LEgion soldiers in Oblivion. They seemed ot take on a sort of Hellenic Appearance

    Oblivion is VERY Tolkien-esque. I love the trees in that game. Skyrim's trees are pretty good, but there's something about that 'speed tree' technology in Oblivion....

    I totally disliked the NPCs in oblivion ; Mudcrabes, Oh yes horrible creatures... But I love Sheogorath and his dialogues branch.

    Guys, seriously, give it up with diocle, he's more stubborn than I am

    Anyways, I check to see whether or not pieces of work are copyrighed, or I make sure they were written before 1923

    Most work on Google isn't copyrighted, but occasionally you have an incident like this. I once posted a bunch of osprey stuff not knowing about the copyright, but someone told me and I took it down. I have like, 200 images on my computer from re-enactors, osprey, and other stuff, but most of it I can't put on the intertubez. Luckily there are plenty of PDF files and stuff out there that aren't copyrighted.

    Strictly speaking no, but then again the risk of you running into some trouble is basically non existent. It also depends, of course, on what kind of images we're talking about. But I wouldn't worry about it.

    Don`t let us warm up the chapter again. But to answer the question from DarthLazy in a serious way I want try to clear up this.

    In this case, it is similar to the rights of football transmissions via TV. As a private person you receive the right to watch the live-matches for your personal use. But you have not automatically purchased a license to make these games available to public.
    If you are an owner of a bar\pub or restaurant - then you cannot take over here your personal account for the private use and show the games in your pub. You need an official lincence of the Pay-TV provider (which is actually a very high amount in Germany, and according my knowledge in England also).
    But of course if you have some guests in your home you can watch with them together (for a so called non-commercial use).

    In the case of Osprey (but also valid for all other publishers) you can of course show your friends some Osprey books at home.
    But as a techer, and here I know what I'm speaking about, it is not allowed to take the Osprey plates and show these images on the projector on a screen infront of 30 pupils (except it is clearly allowed by Osprey; e.g. there is a permission in the book-credits or you have received the allowance by Osprey via e-mail).

    The case you are describing is of course somewhat abstract. Basically I would say that nobody cares two hoots about (also Osprey has nothing against it if you send some photos or plates to your friends). A certain distribution of book contents is advertising. However, I wouldn't shout it from the rooftops.

    I think that if here on these Forums all the people strictly observed the rules about copyright, TWC would be ended by a long time!
    All the Mods members exchange materials and PDF and images, maybe privately, but anyway against the rules, but here no one is speculating or making money from the Mods so.....I do not find very dangerous if someone is a llittle flexible about the rules!

    Anyway Legio was right, Osprey has its rights, and we should respect them! I discharged the images I posted from the site of the russian artist who produced them, I'm sure they were not Osprey, but I cannot know if they were published by someone else...but if the artist gives them as a free download.......anyway no problem by me, the rules are rules and must be respected!

    In the end Osprey images can be found everywhere on Internet! But I'm against this o.c.!

    PS:: I'll continue in the next posts my history of my three preferred Caesarian Legions and my little Latin gift, I'll speak about the concordance between adjectives and nouns in Latin Language as always starting from the IV declination! I like the IV, it sounds so Etruscan!!
