After reading this article by a photojournalist, Sion Touhig
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2006/12/29 ... copyright/
on copyright, image theft and the Web, I am asking Slug and PBase (through this forum) if its possible to help us protect our work in our galleries in some form.
I do upload low res and I also watermark images but this does not really stop those stealing images for website use or where the image does not need to be high res. Anecdotal evidence suggests that theft of images from PBase is endemic and I have found my work on various sites, without my permission, all over the world and I am sure others have also experienced this.
Is there any way that saving images to the hard drive File>Save As can be thwarted in some way! Is it that difficult? Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Cheers
Sheila
