Hey Martin.....
Not to be nosey or anything, but when I see your name on a Photo, it makes me a bit nervous
So....I know this isn't you, and I thought you might want to know if your pics are being used.
Please forgive me if they have permission

GEEZ, have I missed this place
Take care and chat later.

I like the way it says "stock photo". My flippin' stock!
I give up on this photo stealing thing. If there are so many people out there with no sense of ethics I think it's just evidence of poor upbringing.
We're fighting a whole generation.
People are so hooked on instant gratification that dealing in an honest way just doesn't do it for them. I doubt they give a damn that they know they're using someone else's copyright material.

Resistance is futile. You will be assimilated.

Dang, I guess this just continues to happen everywhere
Sorry to be bearer of bad news.....I just thought I should let you know I know I've been furious the times it's been done to me
Anyway, I'm not exactly sure how to "report" a sale on Aquabid? I was considering sending the seller an email telling him just what he's done wrong....believe it or not, some don't think it's wrong to use another's photo if they state something...like stock photo
HUGS for Martin....sorry

As far as I am aware there is not a way which can not be easily overcome, disabling right-click functionality et al is easy to get around. Pictures can be water-marked which detracts from the overall purpose of a picture and even then it would not deter people from using them. The problem lies not in education but in enforcement.raecarrow wrote:There are ways that you can post the photos that they cannot be copied (at least directly) the only way around it would be to take a screen shot and then you would get a poor quality reproduction. Unfortunately I don't remember how do put up a photo so it can't be copied.
Martin- your "stock" photo is used here also-

Not sure who took this photo, but it is on the species index. Sorry if they have permission but this really p****** me of when this happens. Idiots
They should have come up with a way by now so that photographs/images are unable to be copied unless permission is given.
