ahem...I beg to differ here...much of the image grabbing that takes place
is grabbing of stuff that has taken someone many hours to create and is
outright theft.
Whether it's what appears to be a "simple" piece of clipart or a complete
graphic, it should *never* be taken without reading the terms conditions
and if in doubt, contacting the creator.
If those terms and conditions state that you can use it on your desktop or
your *personal* website, have at it..but *never* assume :)
