hi folk , i was wondering what is the situation with copying photographs that are not your own, just for practice,, not for profit,, say you see something on the net thats interesting , is it ok to draw it as long as your not going to sell it, and if you display it you give full credit to the original author. ive seen a couple of images that i like ,but when you try to contact the author, they hardly ever get back to you.
