Yeah, it's like the saying goes..."if someone wants something badly enough, their morals goes straight out the window." That's the unfortunate truth of the matter these days. Digital images are easier to take.

Even a 72dpi, 640x480 image is enough for someone to use to start selling a product. It's been done to me before, several times.
How true! Check out my avatar, thats not even my dog and yet Its the avatar on all the online forums I'm subscribed to People ask me all the time if thats my dog, no answer. I used that as my avatar to get models to come without escorts for a while; "Cute puppy, Yea, I'll bring him along to the shoot so you can leave your man at home; OKAY ! DEAL"
Listen, if someone really wants it, they will take it. I can photoshop out any watermark used on this site. To me, for the most part, it's just like car alarms.
Yes, but like car alarms, burglars would rather pass on the car with one than risk breaking into the car with one.
Well, there isn't much you can do about to prevent it from happen, but yea... Once its up, it can be stolen... Best way is add your name on it, and hope for the best.

there is a pretty simple solution here...especially if you are a pro...I believe there is case law precedent for intellectual material that was posted to the internet by the author and was considered to be published and public domain....if you have an image you don't want to lose...don't post it in a public forum...nes pas?

I think my question got a bit lost in the discussion. In the vbulletin forum software, you can have "IMG" tags that show an image, and "URL" tags that will only show a link to the image (or any other web page).
I can understand not using the IMG tags so the image doesn't show in the thread, but what about using URL tags. The image won't show unless someone clicks on it, and then it takes them to another page with the image, leaving 6speed.

Correct. Illegality forms when someone REMOVES a copyright tag. If the original image is intact, and used in non-commercial, non-malicious, editorial context, and the photo was obtained from a public source, it is perfectly ok to use it.

After reading a lot of documents on this subject, I'm not really sure if an image publically sourced can be used without violation of a copyright. But what is more important is how all this works in the practicality of a court of law.
To be honest, I really could care less about the copyright debate. I'm trying to make sure I play by 6speed rules, and am just wondering if a link is ok vs an inline image.

a link is ok if it doesn't go to a commercial site...safer to just place the watermarked images in the photography section and then link to them...
The link would always be just as in my post above. Would that be satisfactory?
