INLINING:

PLEASE NOTE : Inlining is strictly forbidden by Copyright law. Inlining involves writing HTML on your page to insert an image and/or HTML that is directly fetched from the Midwest Computer Technologies & Rulen Enterprises server.

In this case, you would be engaged in a very straightforward Copyright violation of Midwest Computer Technologies & Rulen Enterprises intellectual property. With Inlining, the Midwest Computer Technologies & Rulen Enterprises site(s) do the work of copying the image to the user viewing it.

Then, to add injury to insult, not only are you using our service without permission, you're making Midwest Computer Technologies & Rulen Enterprises do all the work. With Inlining, Midwest Computer Technologies & Rulen Enterprises are "footing the bill" for web service and bandwidth consumption.

Is is STRICTLY forbidden without Midwest Computer Technologies & Rulen Enterprises permission.

Trying to circumvent Copyright laws by Inlining is not only is it expensive for Midwest Computer Technologies & Rulen Enterprises, it is entirely rude, unethical and most of all = illegal !

It will not be tolerated and will be dealt with swiftly and with all legal avenues attainable & securable via the U.S. Copyright Act & under International and Pan-American Copyright Conventions and Treaties.
