Just a heads-up. (although, since my work has blocked photobucket.com, when I've wanted to post a picture immediately I've done some hotlinking  ) |
Hmm. That makes me think that amazon might not mind, but librarything might care a little more. Something to keep in mind. Do the CP head honchos have a policy on this?
