    Illegal Image Use & Settlement Demand

    I didn't say why should I have to track down the source, I said the "source only" meaning if 1 person uses my image without my consent, and 20 others take it from them, why should I only go after the first person. I'm not omitting that at all. Each case is different and I spend a lot of my...

    Copyright Image Used As Inspiration For A Writing Website - Threatened With Legal Action

    This will be my last post over here as well. I am spending too much time answering these. In THIS case over here, the image used had my copyright information right on it. They left it on the image. There is NO doubt that they knew the image belonged to me, was for sale, and was not free to use...

    Illegal Image Use & Settlement Demand

    Disagreeable.. so let me get this straight. if I leave my lawnmower outside while I go in to get a drink from the fridge, and someone comes by and steals my lawnmower, it isn't theft because I left it in the yard?

    Copyright Image On A Website Used - Threatened With Legal Action

    A photographer makes money when people see their work, appreciate it and then purchase it either directly through prints or through licensing for advertising. If I kept all of my images off the internet then yes, no one would be able to take them but I would also not be able to sell my work...

    Copyright Image On A Website Used - Threatened With Legal Action

    The important point to make is that this is not a scam and I am not a Nigerian prince trying to scam someone out of their life savings. I am a real photographer, with real copyrighted work, that others really do use without permission and can REALLY be sued over. Will I take every case to court...
