    Default My images have finally been stolen!

    I feel like I've hit a milestone, lol. I found a few of my photos online with the photographer's watermark airbrushed out and a new one slapped on. I emailed the photographer to let him know so he can issue a take-down notice.

    I'm not very concerned personally since I'm not very recognizible in the photos (loooots of make-up). I am concerned that a photographer who was a pleasure to work with is having his content fucked with.

    What's funny is that I'm a little flattered that my images were good enough to steal.

    The person that stole them isn't using them to make money, right?

    I've had my images stolen to promote porn sites, and that just pissed me off since they were making money off of my images.
    (Got those removed.)
    Then bitches stealing my photos and creating social networking pages.

    It IS flattering at first, just make sure it doesn't get out of hand. And make sure no one is using your images to make money.

    Lol, well it's the photographer's problem now. It's up to him to order the take-down-- he has all the rights and interest in the photos, I already got my share. It was just hilarious to come across three pictures of myself on the second page of a google image search.

    ^^^ Actually, since the person doesn't have a model release form from you, you can issue the DMCA take-down notice yourself.

    I also meant, "I don't care." Lol, I'm not recognizable in the photos and I'm not losing any money, so I don't see the need to put forth any effort. I let the photographer know, so he can do what he wants.

    But thanks for letting me know that, actually, I can use that information if it happens again and it's a photo that I do care about.
