I think you are talking about something completely different, after all this is not a post about bloggers using images. You may say well it should be the same rule, but it's more complex as like you have said about money etc ... <br />I wrote this because I wanted to highlight mainly to EBay, that they need to step it up. Not only for Bloggers but also people like you, as I'm sure when you shoot product people use these too. I also wanted to highlight that it takes very little time to just snap your own things, and use these on EBay. Thank you for your comment, but I think your talking about another issue. As bloggers this is something we need to be aware of, and look at our actions. I will always use my own images where I can, but as you know when promoting or making a suggestion's say for example 'wish list' this is not always possible.Law1sfabhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08437587240439102781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1826519200046484342.post-90105976902809920362011-12-22T07:54:31.582+00:002011-12-22T07:54:31.582+00:00The main reason it keeps happening is because came...The main reason it keeps happening is because cameras have got so cheap that everyone takes pictures for fun, or are a blogger who takes pictures to enhance their words. <br /><br />Now, most bloggers don't get paid and do this for their own self promotion, so to most bloggers if someone used their pictures elsewhere, but put a little credit and a link to their site, they are more than happy.<br /><br />But people need to be aware that the same is not right for all photographs. I am a professional photographer, taking photographs is my job, and its what I do to make money. Now you could argue that sticking my name on an image you use helps promote me... well you would be wrong. (and the same thoughts go for any other professional photographer). I do enough of my self promotion, and a pair a fair amount of budget and cash each year to do so. And that cash is well spent, targeted to the right people, no amount of fashion bloggers will book me, so that credit you gave me... doesn't bring me customers. What everyone wants for their finished products... is CASH.<br /><br />And it is the CASH part that the copyright agreement comes in. Copyright isn't a "these are mine no one can have them" notice, it is a "these are for sale, don't steal them" notice. It is the intellectual property version of the "thieves will be prosecuted" sign at your corner store, or the security guard on the door of Harrods. The reason it is called image THEFT, is because there is money involved.Dani Riothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18197433558158209551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1826519200046484342.post-80770632033222160572011-12-21T23:25:10.084+00:002011-12-21T23:25:10.084+00:00Well said, I agree with everything that you've...Well said, I agree with everything that you've said! That's so not cool. I also hate it when other bloggers don't credit images that aren't theirs or post too many "borrowed" images...I just think, "should you really be blogging if you can't come up with your own content?" My friend had some photos that she took of a fashion show stolen from her blog by a website, given that the blog is copyrighted she sent the website a copyright notice asking for monetary compensation or the pics to be removed ASAP. Gave them quite a shock I bet as the rogues quickly removed the pics and deleted the entire post from their website. Perhaps we should all start doing this more often and people will start to get the message.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1826519200046484342.post-53395799160675976682011-12-20T23:35:36.344+00:002011-12-20T23:35:36.344+00:00i haven't come across this to be honest but i ...i haven't come across this to be honest but i can imagine, not cool. thiefMatthew Spadehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16043383557092161415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1826519200046484342.post-82661854578092077462011-12-19T22:58:52.087+00:002011-12-19T22:58:52.087+00:00Aww thanks for all the feedback and Dani its great...Aww thanks for all the feedback and Dani its great to see a different take to the post. I would say on au blog there is a credit and link, I did love what you said about the car very true. The different is that using the image as a blogger, I'm not using it too sell. Plus people know those are not my images, where as on EBay are lot of these sellers are claiming them as their own. Like I said watermarking someone's photo. I would always email/ask a blogger if I was going to use an image with their face, it's just good manners. Anyway thanks again, I like seeing every side and all views are welcome :)Law1sfabhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08437587240439102781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1826519200046484342.post-28801263868837483752011-12-19T22:13:33.693+00:002011-12-19T22:13:33.693+00:00AMEN sistah!

You have done it with both images on this post. <br /><br />If you are going to preach Image copyright law, then first follow the rules yourself.<br /><br />Sure you can say you credited the image, but if i came and stole your car but made sure I told everyone it was yours, you still would report me for stealing it.Dani Riothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18197433558158209551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1826519200046484342.post-38637212263997179072011-12-19T20:02:49.211+00:002011-12-19T20:02:49.211+00:00This happened to me before, before I even blogged!...This happened to me before, before I even blogged!
