Ross Stealing Pictures?

That's werid. I was just bored and randomly going through some of the US medical schools and I came to "Eastern Virginia Medical School" 's website. (http://www.evms.edu) If you look at the scrolling pictures, you will see two of the pictures that Ross use for its front page. There's got to be some kind of "Copy Right Issue" thing. Is Ross stealing pictures!?

They're probably just generic medical pics. They may have used the same company to set up their websites. Anyway I don't think it really matters. Good luck in your endevors

one its weird that you looked at the evms website - didn't think anyone knew where that was!(i went there for my masters), but two, i 've seen most of those pixs hanging in lewisHall at evms - and they are either of students or faculty of the school, so which ones are used by ross?

There are companies that specialize in providing stock pictures for any and all uses. I have seen that pretty female "Dr" in adverts for prescription drugs, medical schools, and various other products that require such an image.

It might be better to pretext your future inquiries with a little prudence as to prevent putting your proverbial foot into your mouth again.

Moved the the Ross general forum, as this has no place in Classified Ads.
