But I do need to point out that nowhere on our site do we now, or have we ever, had "clipart" images showing the UN flag or the Korean War Memorial. I would also note that every photograph on our site or in one of our videos (actually keynote presentations) was either provided to us by the copyright owner directly under license or is being used under a license from a stock photo gallery. Patrick Dear DS,

I'm sure you will plead blind ignorance to the fact that one of your 'clipart' images clearly depicts the UN Flag, for which the flag, emblem and name are strictly protected and restricted for commercial distribution. Also, your image of the Korean War Memorial requires a property release for it's usage. Indeed, before you continue busting the balls of everyone else, maybe you should look a little closer to home for infringements.
