Quote Evy (  ) the pic is already in the Gallery added by Fran this morning
Yes indeed, and believe me #MyBlueHeaven had a much easier job taking it from here than I had capturing it from the photographer's site 
I probably need to stop doing time-consuming little jobs like this though, used to give me a feeling of satisfaction now they just make me cranky 
Probably nature's way of telling me to go back to bed  |

@Fran :
I don't want to discourage you but I noticed that some members of french sites (They recognize themselves if they read this message) come here and take their informations or photos on our site.
I notice they are connected and when I connect a few time later on their site (Hypnoweb or Frenchboard) I can see that they have posted without indicating their source. This is not fair play.
We always include our sources.
I sincerely and really think that "The Baker Boy" is the best website which exists 
Continue for us, regardless of others.
We have often said and written, we are a family.

Thanks Evy. Yes, it's the lack of courtesy that irritates me. And to be honest, these days I'm finding the fandom on twitter, tumblr, instagram etc, rather manic, I'm not a part of it and I don't want to be. So you're right, I should focus on our lovely little family here. Which means it's time to review the Friends group and get rid of the fakes. |

@Evy @Fran
Sorry to hear that. I would never take from our site any informations or pics.
I'm very thankful to be here and enjoy the rare stuff about Simon.
Thank you Fran for the great work! |

Thanks Tanja, you've very quickly established yourself as a Friend of the site by participating, and you're very welcome here. Actually I don't mind people posting stuff elsewhere, but I don't like it when it's a one-way street. So (especially when something has involved a lot of work) I get irritated when people take stuff without a 'Hi' or a 'Bye' and post it on their own sites without even a 'Thanks to TheBakerBoy' - personally I think its just bad manners, so I don't want to be 'Friends' with those people. |

Yes this site is the best ever, I am so happy I found it years ago, Fran the work you do here is remarkable, I'm sure all of us here can't thank you enough, I hope those people won't discourage you, I don't understand why it's hard for them to just say thank you, we do it here all the time whenever we post something.
Thank you so much Fran for creating this site, making this family and introducing us all to Simon great work 
I usually don't get into discussions much, just news and photos, my english doesn't help, but we have become a family |

Some people just have no manners, it is polite to say thank you and to give credit where it is due....Thank you once again for your efforts in keeping us all up to date....sadly there are a lot of people out there in the big wide web who don't have any common courtesy! (ok....ok....I'm getting down off my soap box....I hate bad manners!) |

Thank you Fran!
I totally agree with you. We need people with better manners.
And I wanna say thank you again that I may be a part of the family here. 
That's shame that I didn't know earlier about this site. Thanks @sleepylover215 I'm since few weeks here . |

Fran, I agree with all our friends comments. We are a group of people who appreciate hard work and good manners. Like Simon, who has said over and over, good manners is essential to being not only a gentleman but a good human being and he thanks his mum for instilling these values in him. Kudos to you and please don't give up on us. |

It's really terrible that people steal from here! And that without asking and telling about BB as scourse and a thank you. That's not okay. It is bad manners and I don't like bad manners! This is why this here is the best site. We treat each other with respect and we are nice with each other. It is shocking me sometimes when I read on messageboards in the net how many people are rude with each other.
I can't even put in words how grateful I am for this site. Don't let these people take the fun.
Fran, you are the best. |

This site is truly the only one I have ever in my life joined, because it feels safe to comment on things. I feel as though we really do have a family here. We love you a lot, and I know I don't express that enough. |

Thanks for your support  Don't worry, when I said "I probably need to stop doing time-consuming little jobs like this", I wasn't referring to running the site (which is a time-consuming big job!), I was talking about the extra work I sometimes make for myself. |

hmm, I was just wondering... isn´t the Gallery only visible to members/friends of the site? I mean, it was like this, wasn´t it?
Whatsoever: Fran, you know...:  CHAPEAU!
...for all the energy you put in this site, for the patience you have with all of us...

Fran, Fran, have considered water-marking the pics you post? I've seen people do this on Tumblr. That way if people use the pics you've researched its already sourced with the water-mark. |

It's the best solution. I'm a french member of " frenchboard site" and I don't appreciate last coments for my site and Hypnoweb. We don't have the monopoly of simon's news, pictures and on google, instagram, twitter etc..We have the same problem like you. We have the same sources !! we took so us news that we find by internet..So I prefer go away of your site.. |
