more stolen images

[RTaylor]

someone on Pbase just notified us that many images from there and who knows where else have been stolen and are for sale here
http://mclauth.multiply.com/photos

At least one so far is from a Byte member that I will notify immediately if he doesnt already know
Please check to see if any of yours are there.

Hey Ruth.

Many thanks for the heads up...

Yes my ladies have been lifted, for want of better terminology, Nice flattery, however, would have been nice if he'd asked first...which he didn't.

I'm making the appropriate complaints of course...

I guess it has to happen sooner or later...I can assume that user MCLAUTH, yes I know you're out there, stole Water Colour off either from Digital Image Cafe...or from the finalists page of the Lexar comp site...

Protect your images guys...leeches like MCLAUTH are out there...

Thanks again Ruth.

You're welcome.

Graham,
I have an account with Multiply from months ago when a Digital Image Cafe member posted pics there and wanted me to see them.

So I logged in with the account and attempted to buy your photo..
surprise surprise.. it let me but wanted authentification since I never really uploaded pics there, just commented


see screen shot below

that user name sounds so familiar. MCLAUTH,

I keep thinking it was a name I saw elsewhere that someone was stealing and claming images as their own.

i had posted a photo on the Fred miranda site, very recently. It wont come up in my recent posts and when I do a search its as if it was never there. Anyone know why this would happen? old posts from ages ago are still coming up.
