Eric, I have a comment on this (although I can't suggest any particular strategies on processing referer (sic) hits). I have a web site where I put up a lot of my photos <http://freelargephotos.com/>, and I draw a line between "personal use" for which I expect no payment for use of the photos (even the largest version I have which they can get by request), and "commercial use" for which the photo must be used a) to make money or b) in a product or to promote a product that is sold. Therefore, in my universe the uses you mention above I would classify as personal use, and within the bounds of appropriate usage. YMMV. Roy
