Very interesting...I'm not sure what to think 
about that. I know they don't necessarily have to 
ask permission since you don't technically own 
the rights to those images, but I would 
*personally* be a little annoyed because *I would 
like to think* that a big company would have the 
courtesy to say "Hey, we like what we see, can we 
use your scans?" However, if you’re happy with 
the outcome then more power to you--they do look 
good as a banner after all, and besides you can 
tell all your friends about it. ^_~`

With me a little courtesy goes a long way and I 
would probably say "yes" if--and only if--I was 
asked first. ^_^
