Just so everyone is aware, Google Images is busy all the time, harvesting images that are posted on the internet, and displaying them on their website with a statement that "images may be copyrighted". No actual copyright warning, and no mention of the original photographer. They have them available on the site in the same size they were originally posted to the internet, not just as thumbnails. Take a look through Google Images sometime and see all the stuff there that was harvested from railpictures and other railroad enthusiast sites.
A look at Google Images recently showed photos from the website of a historical group that had originally posted them all with copyright notices and photographers credits. The copyright notices and photographer credits were not mentioned by Google Images.
