It's temporary until everyone becomes aware of copyright issues with photos. Personally, I'd rather get the reminder than a letter from an attorney over a photo. One of our members is a professional photographer and he's had to go after magazines for publishing his photos without permission, credit or compensation so I try to be a bit aware of the photos.

I have no problem whatsoever with the message.  OGR can be on the short end of a lawsuit for copyright violation if it publishes a copyright photo submitted by a forumite.  Even if OGR were to prevail, it loses because of attorney fees.  One can always find a copyright or a patent owner who smells a few dollars by suing for infringement, and walking away with a settlement.  The persons sued will find it cheaper to pay off the claim than pay an attorney to fight the claim.  Not just, but that's the way it is.  OGR is dead right in protecting itself.
