Easy stealing during DIGITAL ERA

During the film era, there was not that many cases about stealing images compare to our new era of digital photography.
These days the crooked people under the good name of Pro-Photographer could steal any images thru internet very easily. Then they could change them little bit and present them as their own hard work to few fools.

I DO have a proof.

I managed to caught a thief during my daily critic/comment writing among images. [(K=37501) on 3/3/2006]

Then I managed the spot this.

Now examine those images for yourself and judge if I am right in my reason.

Good luck.

Thats why I tag or watermark mine before I post. If you dont want your images to get stolen use a flash based web site. No right clicking, problem fixed.

Even with flash, you have the print screen option.

true but not very good quality.

Well, on this site, often the same quality as with the right click, especially with landscapes.
But it could help for the portraits.

Well on macintosh the screen shot is good resolution , not degraded as much as the windows print screen. Flash wont help...... but i figure get a copyright from the copyright office and keep your digital backups with the copyrite info embedded.....if you find your stuff, then you are paid......very easy if you have copyright to your work.

I alway put my copyright in the meta data to prove it's mine and I dont think print screen shots sell well.
