Photographs

We spend a great deal of time researching the copyright of photographs used on this website to obtain the relevant clearances and ensure an appropriate credit is given. But you'll appreciate that we are human and don't always get it right.

Our contributors often provide us with images - in good faith - which they have acquired over the years and it can be difficult to follow the ownership audit trail, if it still exists. So if one of your photographs appears on this website and we've not given a credit (or attributed copyright, in error, to someone else), please email u2us@forgottenrelics.co.uk and tell us about it.

Flash galleries

Forgotten Relics' galleries are now in Flash format - this approach gives us greater control over the way the pictures are presented and reduces the burden of site maintenance.

If you're unable to see the galleries, you probably need to install Flash player. It can be downloaded by clicking on either of the links below and following the on-screen instructions.

For Internet explorer, click here. For Firefox, Mozilla, Opera or Netscape, click here.

Our use of Flash does not significantly increase the amount of data to be downloaded. For example, on the old site, Enthorpe cutting's gallery of five pictures totalled 271kB (kilobytes). With the new format, it's 291kB.

In the alphabetical list of featured relics, we have included a column which gives the size of the relevant Flash gallery. For the total page size, you should typically add 33kB.
