Should census images be posted?

This link refers to use of such record

OK the use is for private family research, but by putting them on GR or Facebook doesn't that count as publishing on a website?

No, I'm not aware of any way of posting the actual image.
Best to copy/paste the transcript, and add notes about any wrong spelling or place names.

Old genealogists never die.....they just lose their census.

Is there a way of posting census pictures on these boards . I have put links to two census that I put on Facebook 's Glamorgan family History page , But I don't know if everyone will be able to see them ,if they are not on Facebook . Transcripts are not always correct when it comes to Welsh place names .
