    LcF,

    It is alright if you remove or change the locations of your images but if you discontinue LiewCF.com I will sue you. I don’t hotlink to your images but I have been promoting your blog on my websites. If you deactivate it, I will be embarrassed and the SEs are not going to like it (dead url).

    According to WebsiteOutlook.com, you blog is worth $122,625.4 USD. To see the valuation go to http://www.websiteoutlook.com/www.liewcf.com

    I think you should quote the source near the image, it’s good netiquette to do so, just so that the owner won’t be annoyed. Everyone’s thinking the email is for you :P
