    I'm flattered..but TOTAL COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT !!!!

    Gizmo ( Dave ) found this and gave me a heads up on Facebook!!

    http://www.dsf.my/2013/12/isuzu-vehi...d-of-its-time/


    Generic article at best.... with errors/ mistakes

    " locked-differential low gear four-wheel-drive system for off-road driving"

    Three of the six pics stolen/borrowed/hijacked... from me!

    No permission, no compensation... not even a credit line!

    Copyright infringement letter sent.....

    Ahh the interweb... a photographers dream...and nightmare !

    Thanks Dave

    It happens. I can't tell you how many of my gas mask photos have been stolen and used elsewhere without my permission. It's the nature of the Internet. I'm sure you can get it taken down.

    But have got retroactive compensation before

    I'm more p/o'd about not simply being asked...
    ...and model release/credit for Andrea!

    Yup, that's my biggest peeve too. Just ask me, and all I want is a blurb and a link and that's it!

    The thing that annoys me is that they still got an ad impression from all of us checking on 'em...

    This ad has been using a picture I took of my truck for about 10 years to advertise their driving lights and it's the stock lights in the picture!!! I like seeing my VX though so I never complained or anything!
