Exclusive screenshot of PCM08
Update: I just found another screenshot. It's not exclusive, but I haven't seen in at other PCM websites before. See it here.
Today, I was contacted by the press department of Focus, the publisher of Pro Cycling Manager. He wanted to give me an exclusive screenshot, and I thought: 'Why not?'. So, although it's in no way revolutional, it's a screenshot of Pro Cycling Manager 2008 - and we haven't really got many of them yet. Also, it's exclusive to PCM.daily, and that's never a bad thing either ;) Along with it, I got some screenshots of the cover, including a new 3D version of the cover. I was also sent a press announcement about the game which states that it will be released on the 19th of June, not on the 20th as some sources have said. All screenshots of PCM08 can be found in our Screenshots section - including the new exclusive one :)

mrlol - if you wrote an article, and gave it to PCMdaily, and only PCMdaily! what would you then think, if someone else just took it, and didn't even bother to put your name as the author?
basically what's happening is that they gave a different "exclusive" photo to each site (a bucketload of sites), so there are a lot of sites going around.
it's not that I care... if you want your stuff not on any other site, you should say so: "This is only availabe to this website, and nobody may copy it"
if you dont, it's free to everybody.
@ mrlol: It doesn't work that way. Actually it's the other way around. If you're okay with others using your material, you say so. If you're not okay with it, you're already protected by the rules of copyright. Thus you don’t have to do anything. Without the rules of copyright, quite a large bunch of people could lose their incomes.
