using others photos without their permission to create a website right or wrong?
WELL I came across this site over at icmag.com in the tokers den> said the guy was using members photos to create a site, and then asking in a poll what you think of the site.
figured id' link it here, and see what you guys think....
i mean i would have let him use my photos if he wrote me and asked, but he just straight took dozens of shots, and posted them in his galleries...

Seems over 1/2 of the folks who voted think the stealing pics site is a bad idea. Weird they leave no place to contact them. Shady man. Peace GS

Its totally stealing. Now like you said bubbleman if he wou;d have asked first then thats a different story. I've posted a couple of pictures of yours on a different forum, but I had your permission first. I'm just blown away by the macros you take and I had to show others your skills

Nah, you should get credit for those Bman, or at least he should link your site and/or put your watermark on the photos...

Did you see the banner "Are your photos being used without permission?" contact..for credit or removal...
SO NICE of them to let you know they care, are they fucking serious? Didn't you know you were stealing them when you posted SOMEONEELSE's photos
TO me this is what's wrong with Digital someone, anyone(usually with no skill) can steal someone else's work and then ask later. THis is why I got out of the Photography biz...too many people stealing or claiming to be a photographer...the equipment doesn't make the shot...it's the eye(mind)...In good ol' analog days you literally had to steal it to take it... now, just sit back on the computer and beep,swipe,beep,beep....peace
