Since I have posted stories on the Lit board let me point out that there is a big difference between written copyright and visual.
Just like sharing music, sharing pictures with your friends is not illegal.
Artists have been making collages for a long time using images taken from other places.
Taking a story and claiming it is your own is a whole different matter.
Even if you only post it you are still guilty of plagiarism.
I always put a not at the beginning of my stories that I hold all rights of publication to the stories.
