Hello Lan and everyone here on this thread. This sort of "transparent" hashing out of a business matter on line shows that there is some growing up to do with the new media.
Lan, I appreciate your work, and am sorry that your photo was used without permission. It seems to me that Podtech had apologized and made a reasonable offer. I would accept it gracefully and move on. Your photo wasn't being used in a worldwide ad campaign. I understand that it was on a display at a convention attended by many of your peers. It wasn't your face plastered on a billboard, a redubbing of your video for a 900 sex number, your face on a lunchbox, or potato chips with your image on them. This happens too, by the way. I can tell you from personal experience. There is plenty of work for everyone to do without wasting energy on this. Settle, move on, make video, be happy. When you do that, you make me happy. I like your work as a media producer. Let's leave the lawyering to the lawyers, and get creative.
