Rereading is a beautiful thing. When I travel I always take 2 books - 1 new and 1 old friend. At least I have a 50% chance of enjoying something.

And speaking of Books:

Over at book_icons a recent poster said:

"Blanks are not bases" regarding "The Real Mother Goose" images she uploaded.

I don't quite understand.

What's to stop anyone from customizing the images? Hypothetically: I happen to have a phrase which would perfectly suit the "Peter, Peter, Pumpkin Eater" blank. However, according to the poster I can't. Soooo, rather than user her blank and credit her for it, I'll pop over to the source of the images, download it myself, crop it virtually identically and put my phrase on it. Now, rather than crediting her as the creator of the 'base,' I'll post it under my own name. I'm not planning to do that but it could easily happen.

So, please help me understand. Thank you very much.
Sincerely,
your obedient servant,
silken_shadow
