Mystified about how to hang your hammock?

No one wants to find themselves with their bum dragging on the ground come morning. We found this handy tutorial about how to hang your hammock with a great, easy to follow illustration.

UPDATE: The illustrator, Derek Hansen, has since updated the piece and kindly sent us a copy, which we’ve now posted. Derek also recommends HammockForums.net to anyone interested in more on the topic. Cheers, Derek!

    If you’re going to outright lift a photo from Hammock Forums, at least give credit and a link back.

    Agree with angrysparrow. It’s not nice to present other’s work as your own. How about a link back to Hammock Forums. I don’t let this stuff go on on my own websites. Just isn’t right.

    It’s a great explanation on how to hang a hammock. Too bad it has been posted without giving credit to the author, a member over at hammockforums.net. Got to love it when someone rips off something on the net.

    don’t sweat it guys. Be glad the word is spread. Don’t post on the net if you don’t want it ripped :)

    Hi everyone. Please be aware that we make every effort to give credit to where credit is due. You will notice the illustrators name is listed in the graphic, Mr. Derek Hanson. We did receive permission from him to post his illustration. In no way did we imply it that we did it ourselves. The link we did provide was from http://www.gear-report.com, where we first came across it on the web. There is also a clear url to hammockforums.net in the illustration. Mr. Hanson did a brilliant job, and we just wanted to share it.

    Looks like those who whined don’t have the courtesy to come back and admit they had been wrong for not fully opening their eyes and reading the illustration completely.

    Oh dear – seems like the weasels stated crying like babies before reading the credits at the bottom. Go back to your silly little Hammock Forums and cry yourself a river there!
