What? was Striving for adequate; was Cut or Keep? A Question About Editing
I recently, just today as a matter of fact found one of my photos here: http://bbs.anhuinews.com/thread-197952-1-1.html No idea what it means. Another one here: http://cocorofeel.exblog.jp/6558635/ and one I can't find now of the same image above. My permission was not asked, my name was still on all three. Bothers me, but not enough to do anything. Tom C.

Ann said that she uses watermarks but when you are dealing with people with no cameras or those that think just taking an image that is on the internet is fair game, they will still (potentially) get used. I have to say Tom that I think your attitude to this situation is better than mine.

My sense is that they were being used as examples or to illustrate something regarding the Pentax brand. It's far different than the guy that took my aurora photos, posted them on his sub-page of a mountaineering site and pretended as if he was the photographer, with the ficticious date and place. That made me mad! :-) Tom C.

Re: What? was Striving for adequate; was Cut or Keep? A Question About Editing
Sort of related to Ann's cafepress thread - I went to her store to buy a calendar and surfed around a bit in some other stores. Came across one store where the shopkeeper had nicked one of my photos and fiddled around with it and added it to his inventory - with his signature on it!

Filing a complaint already I hope. Even though converted, the reflections in the eyes would seem to give it away. I never imagined Bill would do something like that.

Re: What? was Striving for adequate; was Cut or Keep? A Question About Editing
Those are, IMO, most definitely the same image, The highlights pattern in the fur are frighteningly similar. You could buy one to make certain. If your sure that it is your sho,t I'd send the seller a polite email asking them to remove it, as it's in violation of the cafepress Content Usage Policy guidelines: Is it ok to use an image I found on the Internet? Simply because an image is found on the Internet does not mean that it is in the public domain or available for commercial use on merchandise. You should assume that you cannot use the work unless the author of the work has explicitly granted you a license to use the work or it is in the public domain. Further, a person who posts an image on the Internet and claims that you are free to use it may not have had the right to post the image in the first place. Thus, your use of the image may violate the rights of the actual copyright owner. .and I based my artwork on the artwork of a third party, is that ok? It depends. Artwork derived from the previous work of another may violate the rights of the owner of the previous work. If you are creating a design that is based on the work of someone else, you may need to obtain permission from the original creator prior to creating your own work. You should consult with an attorney before using works based on the work of another through the CafePress Service. If that doesn't work alert Cafepress. And if that doesn't work, release the hounds, so to speak.

It's hard to tell but it certainly looks like its the same.
