Lidia

When you say it �s from your book, do you mean you did the illustrations? Buying a book does not give you the rights to use the pictures.

Obviously, being from your book, it �s not stolen.
Personally, with the scant activities, I would consider it to be a flash card. I mean who just flashes flash cards? I always include activities with my own flash cards.
Perhaps you would be kind enough to add something, say some questions about it, like:
How many...?
What time...?
Where is/are...?

Just my opinion, since you asked.

Oh! I thought you meant your book as in you are the author!

Lidia, it �s nice to write the sources of the pictures you use in your ws, the title of the book, the editor, date, page number or the name of it �s illustrator, in this way you are encouraging other teachers to use this book, it �s more like an advertisement than stealing.

Hello dear Lidia, I reported your wss - there were two. They were pictures with invitations to write or speak about them, as I explained on the moderators � page. This does not count as esl exercises as I see it. Did you create these pictures? I was interested to know. I just wanted to clarify the rules - is it OK to upload lovely pictures without esl exercises, or is it not? I see the pictures and the points are still on your page, so I will not report pictures without exercises again. 

PS: is it this picture which has distorted the forum?

PPS: can anyone tell me: is it OK to use other members� pictures, whether they are taken from the internet or a text book, add exercises and upload them?

I hope you mean that Lidia. In fact, I still think that a picture with two sentences saying speak about it and write about it is not within the spirit of the rules, so I will test it. Let �s see how I get on.
