On another detailing forum a sharp eyed friend and fellow detailer was surfing the web of other detailing sites and found this guy using a picture of an engine I had detailed and posted on both Autopia and Detail City, I also believe it is on my website.
It also seems that he has taken the work of another detailer and posted it on his site. I called up the gentleman and acknowledged who I am and that he pirated or stole one of my pictures and is presenting it as his own work. He apologized and said he would remove them.
I will not mention the name of the detailer nor the website because I truly believe, for the moment, that he just needed a engine picture, which does not justify it but helps me understand.
I will post the name and web address if the pictures are not removed so all professionals on this site and others can be notified. Has it come to the point where we need to "copyright" even the pictures we post on forums? I sure hope not.
So for all you pro`s out there, keep a watchful eye on your hard work.
Thank You,
Anthony
