TROPHY CASE

Did you even read what I said?

I said "if you have pictures of your own stuff and the 3d mockups" which is obviously talking about HER OWN PICTURES, and linking to a product page is not using a picture of somebody else it is sending traffic to the actual company and leave it up to the company to display the picture. It also acts like a reference in an academic paper.

I am aware of that. But it isn't related to this claim.

Dear Reddit, Why do Christians assume God is Omnipresent?

You should write a reasonable sized article on the subject, think of it as a book report.
