They say: "Nom nom nom...leaves... nom nom nom..."

Deman

"It's like saying, I'm here, get out of here - I already own this leaf."

A bit like whistling when you're in the loo I suppose?

You whistle in the loo

No  

But only cos I can't whistle  I have to sing instead.

ROFL you two!

The only talking caterpillar that I know is that very hungry caterpillar.....

Would that be this fellow Charli....



Love that book!

So do I!!!!! <3

And here's the original talking caterpillar - Tenniel's original illustration from Alice in Wonderland. (We can't show any from the Disney film as that would be breach of copyright, but Tenniel's is so old that copyright would have expired)

These bloody shoes

"These bloody laces! I knew I should have gone for slip ons"

el loro i sent you a pm

Breach of copyright?  This is a forum, we can post it if we want to.

The reason why I mentioned copyright was because the website I found the image on also had pictures taken from Disney's film and actually said that it knowingly was showing these pictures even though they were in breach of copyright. Also have a look at the Terms of Service (link at the bottom of the page) and you will see that we are not allowed to post material which is in breach of copyright. Proof of breach is difficult but I have read elsewhere that Disney, probably more than any other studio, are very protective about their copyright. Hence my comment.

And I sent you one back. Have a good night's sleep.

"Psst, anyone remember what we're queueing for?"

Look at that caterpillar, smoking drugs.
We'd all be hearing talking animals if we carried on like that.

I was unware of anything about that so thanks for your reply El Loro. You`re very knowledgeable. Like you say, proof of breach is difficult. Most of us on here and on most forums,I would imagine, wouldn`t even think to check. I wouldn`t want to jeopordise this forum by using unallowed copywritten material. In saying that, I wouldn`t know where to start to find out if it`s allowed or not..I`m sure I`m not alone. If you see anything, let us know, or maybe the mods will.

I think we all have that problem. I don't intentionally breach copyright but everytime I put a photo or video clip on this forum I realise that there is that risk. Most of the things I put on come from Youtube or the BBC. The clips on Youtube invite you to share the link with others and provide you with the clip address. So that seems to be safe. Anyway the clip has Youtube shown at the start so no-one is in any doubt as to where that has come from. As far as the BBC is concerned, I only provides links to articles on their site rather than copying the article on to the forum site. I always say in my posting that I have taken this from the BBC website, so I don't see that that can be breach of copyright. For the Tenniel picture I included here, John Tenniel died in 1914 and Lewis Carroll in 1898. So the two died more than 70 years ago, so as far as I know that's out of copyright.

As for other material, that's beyond my knowledge - I'm not a copyright lawyer. It is common practice for the concept of fair use to be applied. So I guess that provided people are being fair in what they include they should be OK, unless the material in question (such as Disney material) states that any copying is regarded as infringement. In most countries (but not all), breach of copyright is a civil offence (ie damages can be claimed), but in some countries breach is a criminal offence (I don't know which countries).
I think it would be dangerous for anyone to post a link to a site known for pirated material and it would be dangerous to start showing clips from films.

Awwwww The Hungry Caterpillar.... both my kids and my grandkids loved that book

I love those queueing caterpillars. Form an orderly line..

They're funny, aren't they?

Apparently, if you get them into a circle, they will carry on following until they are exhausted, even if they can see food nearby!

OT but did you know butterflies flutter because there drunk

Did Royston tell you that, Kelly?
