(Having my image on your page would create a problem for me, for example, if I ever wanted to transfer rights to my image to a publisher, contest organizer, etc.) I'm sure this was an oversight on your part, but both the "Details" tab for this photo, and the information for your folder page at http://www.photo.net/photodb/folder?folder_id=164238, lists "Maris Lidaka, Sr." as the photographer and copyright owner of my image. Nowhere do you list either a credit (e.g., "Original image from <URL>") or a copyright statement (e.g., "Copyright 2002 Bill Peifer"). I ask that you remove this image and any thumbnail facsimiles from your Photo.net pages at your earliest convenience. I appreciate the time you took making adjustments to my image in Photoshop, and you are certainly welcome to upload the modified image -- along with any comments -- to my Photocritique.net page. (This is routinely done by Photocritique.net users and commenters, and it allows the original photographer and copyright owner to control rights to usage.) Thanks for your prompt attention to this matter. Bill Peifer Rochester, NY - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List. To unsubscribe, go to http://www.pdml.net and follow the directions.
