I agree considering that the only real redress the copyright holder has is a claim for loss of income and as he has not lost and income as the website is free access I con't see what his point is.

My first thought was to check the date of this contribution and I was quite surprised that the date was 10th April rather than the 1st.
This guy should get a life. Doesn't he realise that traffic on his website is the object of the exercise; he puts animated knots on his website, people come to it to see the knots and theoretically this should net (unintended pun:) ) him some revenue. Links, such as that used by our poster above are the means to bring that traffic.

Regardless of knot, it looks as though the line has pulled right out. Personally I would make sure a few turns still sit on the drum when the sail is furled so that the line is less likely to cut on the edge of the hole by the knot due to a direct pull. In fact i would think it more important to chamfer the hole both sides rather than what knot to use

He doesn't mind traffic to his website. What he (his lawyer) objected to was the photo being abstracted from his website and pasted as a jpg into the YBW website.

The Mod has now converted the jpg back into the source link.
