Generally:
Except where otherwise indicated, all pages on this website,
and all images or other embedded elements contained therein, are my original work.
You may not copy nor publish them without my permission,
either as granted below or as I may grant
specifically to you. I'll often grant requests, just contact me.
Creative Commons License for Photos:
All of my photos on this site may be used in accordance with the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike-Noncommercial license.
[I decided to use this CC license in 2006, but it applies to any of my photos on this site whether posted here before then or after. The effect of this license is similar to the permission to embed my photos that I've had since I started this website, but it permits additional uses such as printing, re-hosting, and use in derivative works, so long as its conditions are met -- for example, it doesn't allow any commercial uses. My paragraph on embedding allows embedding (with attribution) on commercial websites too (but no other commercial uses), so it hasn't been completely superseded.]
Linking
Linking (defined) to any of my pages, or to any element
embedded in any of my pages, is always permissible.
Embedding
Permission is hereby granted to embed any of my images into
a page on another site, so long
as the embedding page clearly indicates (in a manner clearly visible to the user [not just in source HTML]
and reasonably adjacent
to the embedded image) that the image is my work and is subject to copyright. [Update 2006: Webmasters are warmly encouraged to add that the image may be re-used under a Creative Commons license. This is optional since you're not necessarily relying on that license (this "Embedding" section grants you an independent right), but spread the love, OK?]
[This paragraph added 5 Nov 2005] I also request that you notify me of such embedding (please provide the URL of your page) and also provide an HTML link from your page to either www.davidalbeck.com/ or www.davidalbeck.com/photos/ .
Javascript
Permission is hereby granted to copy, distribute, modify, or use in any way any of
the Javascript code
contained within the pages on this site.

Exception: you may view a page in your browser, even though your

pages:
files of type HTML, or the output of CGI scripts. Unless otherwise indicated, the meaning of "page" includes
