Why are people here complaining so much? Yes, I would like it too if Topps just released their old images without watermarks and let people use them however they wanted to, no strings or legalities attached. They haven't done that and aren't going to. I am just very grateful that we do have the images, and that we can use them in a wide variety of ways so long as we abide by Topps' requests. They created the images, after all, and they are entirely within their rights in how they chose to present them to the public. Do people want to fight or cheat Topps? All that will do is get this page shut down and possibly leave some persons facing legal action, to the loss of all the other hobbyists and historians who use this forum. I can't see any advantage in that. I say let's enjoy what we have and make the most of it. Abiding by the rules isn't that hard.
