[Clipart] WK Designs

[Jarod Russel]

Its good to see that these images I reported ages ago are finally 
removed. WKdesign never understood what public domain means for his 
images, until I explained it to him. The hell was he surprised.

Fact is, the removal of the images took far too long. The images got 
downloaded by heaps of people, believing the images are in the public 
domain and free to use. Well lets hope WKdesign will not sue anyone of 
those people.

For the future it would be a good idea to add a report button to report 
images if they are questionable. Include a small form where people can 
write down a reason why they report the image. Don't accept reports 
without reasons. Reported images should be hidden automatically until 
cleared as public domain. This might be a pain in the ass, but wikimedia 
commons has shown it is necessary. People have submitted artwork there 
as public domain and claimed to be the owner when infact they weren't.
