I keep finding my pictures all over the net, advertising pay sites, and making money for other people since i posted them on here.

I'm not bothered about my pics being reposted in the babes gallery etc, but it's annoying when you find them on pay sites!!!

Robyn who I posted November last year http://whatboyswant.com/forum_read/3990815/1/10, is now being used all over the place on sites like this http://www.amateurvalley.com/category/pictures/page/2/

So my question again, why can't people like me who post pics they take protect them???

Well, if you hotlink them, and post them in NPB and NNPB..you can.

If you're uploading them, you can't.

Hope that helped?

Theft on the internet?! <gasp>



As far as your pictures go, they're automatically watermarked with the "Seen on WBW" tag if you upload them to WBW. If you hotlink them, then they're available without watermark to every person who stumbles upon that imagehost.

Either way, people can crop them out, photoshop them, etc, so its tough to stop all that.

Yeah, just hotlink them and you can put all the copyright on them you want. If you want to really prevent "theft" and people claiming them as their own and shit, that's probably the best bet.

anything that makes its way onto the internet, and is made publicly viewable will be taken, used, and claimed as someonelse's work.
