[ad15]

if you don't want anyone else to use your images then you should really watermark them,,

You shouldn't have too!!!!

 

People should only use their own images to promote there own work, other wise its tantamount to fraud!!!, IMO!!!!!!

i can understand if it was showing an awesome tree reduction or a very dificult fell, the pics i have are 2 guys at a chipper and someone in a basket cutting ivy. You are using someone elses pic in your avatar, what if the guy that made that took a hissy fit, would you take it off or send him a few quid lol

This has happened to me twice.

I sent them an Email asking them to remove the pictures and they did so.

will do in future, but the image is of rohan cutting wood on our home page, and i think putting a watermark across it would make the web page messy

 

ii have emailed them firmly, but politely asking them to take it off their website and theyve sent me back a really snotty email asking me all sorts of questions as to why i think they cant use it:sneaky2:

I once had some people using my pics on ebay. I told ebay and they ban them on copyright grounds.

My comment was not aimed at you mate

 

I was irritated by the comment that said people should put water marks on their images to stop them being used.

 

Its like when people have kit stolen and some one says "well you should have locked them up better" NO!!!! we should be able to leave out gear out in the street or the keys in our cars, its the thieving scum who are in the wrong not a careless owner. (it hard to think like a criminal when you are honest)

 

And the people who say the victim is partly to blame are making theft less of a crime!!

 

If its not yours leave it alone!! any thing else is stealing, plain and simple!!
