@Tony It was there 10 minutes ago, which leads me to suspect that whoever it was is monitoring this forum.

Found someone ripping off 3 of my photos. The funny thing is that he claims that he rode two of the buses on the day and has put his copyright on it, and that they were all taken on 1st April 2015!

From Facebook

Jacks. Nxwm bus page

Quite a few photos that belong to @Tony  and @4006 on there. His name is Jack Jonesy Jones on Facebook and registered on here as Jack Jones briefly.

I have asked him more than once to remove every photo he didn't take including some of mine but I was talking to a brick wall

Edit

@Rob2832 and if we have a Craig Dutton on here then your photos also on this page

Hi Ash

Regards

Said prolific photo thief has said that if a photo is shown on Google, there is some sort of common law that says that those photos aren't owned by anybody. Got to go straight in the top 5 crap excuses ive ever heard. His belief is the same as the quote, if its on the internet, anybody can have it. I know my persistence may make me sound like I'm moaning again but I'm not. It's just not fair on talented photographers/knowledgeable enthusiasts (I don't fit in either category but hey ho)

Yes they can 'copy' it but they cannot distribute it which is clearly what a lot of ppl do including Mr original 'Jacksy Jones'. Then again you can't smoke in the bus station...drive a car with no insurance....neither r u supposed to rape & stab ppl. We live in a society of animals, so I guess getting someone to remove a picture......

A certain member *cough* @Rhys S *cough* has stolen a photo from my flickr

The first picture shows it on my flickr. Another reason Rhys has stolen this photo is because HE IS ONBOARD! Top left window.

The second shows it on his facebook page uploaded on May 19Th.

Now I'll ask politely first for @Rhys S to take the photo down by 00:00 on Friday 3rd July I will take further action against his facebook page as this is not the first time he has done this.


Following this I messaged @Rhys S to ask him more personally to take it down and reiterate that he had stolen the photo and that it was breaking the law and his response was along the lines of 'He dosen't care'

I am saying this now that I apologise if people think I am being harsh on Rhys but I do not appreciate people stealing photos as wouldn't most people.

I am on that photo so by rights I will keep the photo

[NXWM Spectra]

This isn't the first time he's stolen a photo, as you're aware @Dom. Maybe you should remind him of where the law stands on photography. Also remind him that his age doesn't make a difference.

Is he even old enough for Facebook?

Tried mate, intellectual property use is effective and states that only the creator (I.e me!) has the ownership to the item in question (I.e My Photo) and that if someone wished to use it they must ask permission or it is a crime. I believe not I think the age min for FaceBook is 13 (Although not 100%)
