I won't argue the copyright argument. I'll just say, nice avatar.
I deleted my post. I really don't want to offend anyone. I apologize to InSutterWeTrust.

A photography forum is a slightly different context. Personally, I'm one of those people who would always welcome CC (though, if you want to actually edit it, I'd like you to ask first) but for others it's a fine line between helping and discouraging/disparaging.
Yes, my avatar is a copyright violation too (and I re-sized/cropped it). It's not a copyright violation that could be perceived as an "I'm better than you" post though.
