You say that you have obtained permission in the past, so I can't understand why you didn't in this instance. In future I suggest that you either obtain permission from the photographer or you install a download bar on your website. If people are that desperate to obtain the pictures they can either buy the magazine or contact Ewan's official website. And it's quite obvious how the publication would not give someone like me the time of day. I have been waiting for responses for weeks now after contacting a production company and a clothing store to find out who to get permission from to post images on one of my sites.
Nothing seems to be working.
There is NO official site for Ewan and people from Mexico to Chile to New Zealand do not have access to this magazine. I think this is coming from Esquire. I have not heard from them yet. But I just don't care. And I'm scared about my site if Ewan's people are behind this.
