Thank you for cleaning up my picture a bit and then slapping your name on it. That makes sitting out in the mud and rain all day taking pictures feel so worth it now.

People still go to that site? There is so much mis-information on that site. It looks like they just looked at a list of names and picked the top five with a dart.

Now stealing pics, pathetic. Sucks to hear that it happened to you sky, make sure to watermark all of your photos before posting so people who site in office chairs during the race can't do this.

That still doesn't help the fact that you stole and image from the internet, put your watermark on it and then posted it on your site with no photo credit.

You are still in douchebag status.

If you are wondering why this is pissing me off so much it's because I am a photographer that has had this happen to him quite a few times in the past.

Hire a photographer or have a friend go to the event and take shots for you.

---stepping up to the soap box-----Not to stick up for anyone....but images on the internet that are not already watermarked, or signed in some way....will generally be assumed public domain. Just a good rule of thumb. If you want to post up pics that you do not expect to be public domain, make sure you do something proprietary to it. Conversely, if you want to use a pic...it's good manners to ask permission first. Lastly, don't EVER put YOUR OWN watermark on a picture without consent from the owner. ----he steps down from the soap box----

Sorry, but this part alone made me LOL (out of context). Sig worthy in fact.

And yes, that is my roommate's picture that he risked life and limb in adverse conditions to get. Not cool to watermark it as your own.

That's all I really care about. I took the pics and posted them up for people to have, share around, throw on their facespaces and whatnot. Not for people to put their watermark on them and claim them as their own.

My name is Dr. Kenneth Noisewater, if you could tag that picture as mine it would be great. Next time just shoot me an email or something, or buy me a beer at the mountain.

Good writeup otherwise

Again i say sorry... I will see if i can get the water mark removed. i dont want to piss to people off. although this is the internet and it is quite common that people get pissed off about every little thing imaginable but yes i should have asked first.
