...to continue in your analogy, here's an 
example. When you have the pictures of the house, 
yes, you don't have the actual house. But if 
someone TOOK one of your pictures, that you took 
the time to create, without asking, and placed it 
on their mantle ove their fireplace, you'd be a 
bit peeved, no? You probably would have said yes, 
bt it's jsut annoying.
