Dono, I do not see a problem if you or anybody else copy anything from my site for personal use, including photos. I do not have any problem when folks use my pictures to print labels for their personal use or in seed trades between individuals - I'd actually prefer that, as it helps to have information about a variety at your fingertips.
I am also happy to give permission to use my own pictures to non-commercial folks who sell a few tomato plants - all you need is just ask! ![]() I freely share my work with a few non-commercial tomato websites in Germany (you may have seen some of my photos there). I get lots of photos from these guys to post at TOMATObase. We give each other a credit and continue to benefit from the sharing. That's a very rewarding partnership that benefits many NA and German gardeners too! I absolutely do not support use of somebody's else work by commercial seed vendors without an explicit permission from owner. It is not just illegal, it is very unethical and unprofessional.
