First picture is our house! Fifth picture is taken from our balcony and both taken by me and stolen from wherever they are posted. Not only that they have watermarked them as their own.

Oh .. and the sunset picture is mine as well.

All nicked off facebook by one of my 'friends' I think.

I think I will watermark my pictures in future

Thing is - if he'd asked I would have said yes.

Copyright laws are worldwide,if you took the picture and can prove that you did, then you own the copyright. .... I would be firing off a threat to sue them ASAP, Now that could frighten them.

Nicholas Homes used to bring me new project brochures with photos of Calis taken by me!

Not too bothered about the use of them as it is a neighbour - it seems. However it would be nice to be asked and NOT to have THEIR watermark on my pictures.

Would that friend be the same person that has it up for rent and is seen in one of the pictures ?
cheeky git his inside doesnt look a bit like yours. We must have all been there when the were taken or you were using mine as there is washing on our terrace

Stoop I know how this sort of thing grates.  Some years back a 'rival' company in telecoms nicked our specialist training manual, and associated collateral.  We knew it was ours, even included our spelling mistakes!  A stern letter from m'learned friend stopped it's continued use, but by the then it was too late.  I can't name the company copncerned, but they're now one of the UK's biggest telecom companies.  And as you can sense it still grates today[!]

Any photo put on Sahibinden is automatically watermarked.
If you don't want anyone taking your articles or photos then don't put them on the web.
Simples!!!!

Loz,

Not quite right IMO. Nobody has the right to take any of my pictures or your pictures no matter where they are posted.

As I said - if the guy had asked then I would have said 'OK' but to be honest the first picture, which is our place, gives a very false impression of the actual rental property.

As for the water marking. I think they have a cheak putting that on a picture that is not theirs. A bit like me adding my name to a Picasso.
