The balls on some of these people. There is a website (can't remember the addy) that will show your stolen images around the web.Some sort of "facial "recognition software. Several of my images were on russian calanders, spanish greeting cards, etc. Hard to stop.
At Bayou, I had more people in my booth with camera phones, and DSLR's literally framing images than any other show I can recall. I had at least 4 that I had stand there and show me they had deleted the image, and my neighbor ran a guy down that was shooting outside the booth, and SHE made him do the same.
I don't believe in posting signs, it works for others just not my thing, but the audacity of these people is beginning to be a bit hard to deal with.
How did you find your images on Facebook?

Thanks to those that were able to comment - I noticed Deb Booth got one in
that was good. Looks like the images have been removed. Mission
accomplished this time!
I'll let you all know what I hear back from Facebook if anything.
