Suggestions please, what should I do..........

Sufring on the RSOC BB, when I came accross a post titled
MY WEBSITE (photobucket album)
In it there is a person that has uploaded 3000 pic's of RS's


Very nice I though, I wonder if he has any of Paul's (My brothers) RS turbo..

So I looked in the RS turbo section...........

http://photobucket.com/albums/v377/skylineboy2002/RS%20PIX/RS%20PIX/ESCORT%20RS%20TURBO%20S2/

Now, compare that with the photos on my website - www.rscarshows.co.uk

Out of the 20 on the first page, 18 of them have been taken from my website :silent:


It's not only that section, most contain a large selection I photo's that I spent a lot of time last year traveling around to take myself. I am still trying to find a page on his website that does not contain one of my photos that I took with my camera.

What should I do ???????

(Even worse than that he has put all RS2000's together - mk 1,2,5 & 6 ! ! ! )http://bbs.rsownersclub.co.uk/showthread.php?t=68606

i think unless you pay for a copyright anyone can copy them ...

[Kel]

you could nicely email him and request he removes your photos.

[Kel]

Like I have

It isn't the fact that someone has coppied the photo's that annoys me,
it's that I was never asked.

Yeh Kel,

I'll do that, but he may struggle as I reckon there about 500 of mine on there

Should be interesting.

[Kel]

Totally Agree.

Alan, is RSshows working now as there seemed to be a problem over Xmas.

[Kel]

even nicked my old 4x4




reminds me I must take a photo of the RS2000 in that place, out the front of our house.

Yeh,

the server at my work went down, & I was off on holiday so didn't realise

Alan

[Kel]

No prob, was looking for a photo of Daves old engine.

The cheaky f**ker has nicked all the photos off the Automotive Unlimited site as well.

Thats one of my sites !!!

[Alan Cox]

Talk about hitting you where it hurts

[Trickster]

does Brian know his car is on there????

[Deepest Blue]

Al,
While your on, ask about royalties payments to owners for each picture of their car used !!

CheeRS Neil.

[Trickster]

and if there is any payment i have loads of pictures he can use

[Fraz]

Unfortunately dont think there is much you can do but ask him to remove them. I had noticed that there were loads of pictures of my 500 that you took at the Aberdeen show.

Must admit I have used the pictures you took of my car a few times myself, hope you dont mind, if so I will happily remove them. Except for the one I have blown up, framed and on the living room wall would rather leave that one there
