Check out the disclaimer that is currently on the Field Guide:

Photos posted on the Portland Hikers website and wiki are used with the permission of individual users who retain copyright to them. They may not be used, altered or duplicated without express permission of individual users.

Other than the outdated "Portland Hikers" - I think that's more in line with what people would expect the copyright to be. Maybe the one at the bottom of the forums could be updated?

I don't mean to be condescending to anyone, I'm just stating my opinion which is just as valid as anyone elses :)

"by labeling them "a concern.""

I just tried to find a neutral word. That's what I'm talking about though, people focus on their interpretation of some text that didn't mean any particular thing

Okay, let's get back to arguing about Hillary and Trump :twisted:

We're cool, Jerry, no worries.

Never seen that disclaimer on the FG, Dan. That certainly embodies the spirit Jerry was referring to far better than the one currently shown on the pages it ostensibly applies to.
