The distorted photos are the work of John F Bromley, who helps fund his
retirement by selling photos taken by himself or from his collection. He is
determined to keep people from copying his photos without paying for them
nor can you use them in programs or publications without his permission.
Photos are like any other kind of media or art. Pay for them and use them
properly. I have used John's images when speaking to groups in Pittsburgh
and I always give him and other known photographers or the archives the
proper credit. 
I don't know why there is so much ho-ha about this. Those on Ebay are in a
business of SELLING images just as if they were at a trolley meet. Nothing
is free at a meet and nothing is free on EBAY so I don't blame anyone from
trying to protect his wares. Have we complained enough about this?
