This member has just stolen my images and has posted them as his own. He's even gone to the trouble of removing my name and inserting his.
Here is his thread;

And here is mine;

How does one handle this?

Wow... he/she must be banned. Maybe IP tracked and blocked. Something.

They used to say that imitation is a sincere type of flattery...

This time I think it's blatant theft... with no redeeming points to the thief!!

What the heck happened to HONOUR ??

This is low, terrible low. And to repost them on this site the same day as the original posting? That can only be called stupid in my opinion.

Joe, did you try sending the guy a PM and asking him WTF the deal was?
I would be interested to see what he had to say about it.
The fact that his post is on the same forum makes it all the more odd.

In any case I have had my photos lifted and posted all over many times and I just laugh it off because it's usually not worth getting in a major twist over it.

Gotta admit though, posting on the same forum and swapping out the watermark is pretty ballsy.

I suggest this may be an error e.g. computer glitch

How does a computer glitch change the names on the photograph?
