Copyright Notice:

The images and text contained in this and all other associated web pages of The Diesel Page® are protected by Copyright © 1996-2019 by The Diesel Page®. Copying images and/or text (in part or in whole) from The Diesel Page®, then reproducing this material for others, or posting this material on another web site or Internet forum without prior consent violates US and International copyright laws.

Members may print or produce a single copy of any of this information for their own individual use as long as all copyright notices, web URL links and author credits remain intact. Any commercial use, reproducing this material for others, or posting this material to another web site or Internet forum (in part or in whole) is strictly prohibited unless you have prior consent from The Diesel Page®. Violators will be taken to task for illegally using our material.

We take copyright laws and individual rights seriously. Only original text and images, or (on rare occasion) re-printed with permission material appears on this web site. We respect the rights and hard work of others. Please respect ours.

Please note: With the exception of a couple of paragraphs in the Forum Rules statement that were required by Jelsoft (developers of vBulletin), our forum rules and our copyright statement were created and written by us, and are also protected by copyright. This copyright statement is 100% original to The Diesel Page. In addition, The Diesel Page is a current and registered Trade Mark.

Please remember that you must either be the copyright holder, or have permission from the owner, to place images in your photo album and/or insert them into your posted message. Unless the photographer specifically says that his image(s) are "public domain", the use of those copyrighted images is restricted, whether they are branded or not. Always ask permission before using someone else's work. The same applies to text. The written word is copyrighted as soon as it is typed or written.

The simplest way to avoid violating someone's copyright in your posted messages is to simply insert a hot link to the web page that displays the image or text. This way, the photographer/writer gets the recognition he/she deserves and his/her web site gets the web traffic. It's all a matter of fairness.
