View Full Version : Posting links to HPOTD from my blog

I was just reading the interview (7/1) with George Romero, and would like to feature a link to it in my blog: angryyoungmenltd.com
I'd also like to post the pic of the Romero zombie puppet (as my site is dedicated to my NOTLD puppet show).
I have a link to the main page of the HPOTD site as "something you should check out", but I'd like to showcase this wonderful interview for the 2-3 people following my own blog.
I checked the FAQ, but didn't see any subject applying to this particular question. And I'd hate to make a breach of nettiquette.
I suppose I'm simply looking for permission. May I?

You can post a link to the main site, Bits and Pieces section or directly to the article if you wish:-
http://www.homepageofthedead.com
http://www.homepageofthedead.com/baps
http://www.homepageofthedead.com/baps/romero_interview.html
If you wish to post the image of that awesome Romero muppet, ideally please host the image yourself (if you can, ie: don't simply link it/display it from HPotD) and obviously please mention where the image came from...

Well, I have a link to the site on my blog already - it's that great a resource.
But yeah, I mentioned the site in the article. I know folks link to all sorts of things in these crazy intertubes, permission or not, but I hold myself to a higher standard. So There.:p
Thanks again for the green light.

Ah, now I can post this as an article on facebook, then, right? I'll test it and make sure it has the relevant note about provenience (i.e. hpotd name).
EDIT: Looks awesome using the 'share' option on my main facebook page, even puts the picture of the puppet up as the default thumb nail option :)

Sorry to go on about this... I'm still utterly stunned Aint It Cool News wasn't interested in this great interview! - I emailed them twice, to a couple of their different addresses...
In my email to them I even included an image of the Romero muppet. Seriously! How cool is it!?

They don't give a Friar Tuck, Neil. You got the scoop and they didn't.
