Warning from AOL:
IMPORTANT REMINDERS WHEN USING PICTURES:
Remember that pictures posted within products (Member Directory, AOL¨ Journals, etc.) or shared through e-mail (and saved to a You've Got Pictures¨ picture album) through My Picture Finder can be downloaded from those products and saved by other members. Other members may then distribute your picture to others, or may order prints or other merchandise containing your image through the You've Got Pictures¨ service.
While it may violate copyright, rights of publicity, or privacy rights for others to share posted pictures or otherwise reproduce them, keep in mind some members may do so regardless. "If you do not wish others to be able to download, save, distribute, or order merchandise containing your picture, please do not share or post your picture in this manner."
