I'd probably be more honored than irked.
I'd talk to the f-i-l & tell him that if he would have asked, I would have
gotten a print or two. If you have sold copies of that image, you could tell
him so. It doesn't sound like he did it to screw you.
You might start putting copyrights on your images, it probably won't stop
copying but you can then tell the recipient that it is illegal to do so.
I don't give away my prints to anyone outside my immediate family & they
know how I view my photography. BTW I'm not talking about snaps or people
photos.

Subject: People Scanning Our Prints
Hi Everyone:
I'd very much like to know everyone's views about something that has just
happened to me; here's the story:
I gave a nice print--as a gift--to a friend. My friend's father-in-law
took the print to get it framed, and come to find out, he also made some
scans of the print and gave them to family members. I'm just going to
come out and say it--I'm really irked by this. I often sign my prints in
the lower right hand edge, but I didn't on this print.
How irked would you guys be? What, if anything, would you guys do or say?
Thanks in advance.
Cheers, Christine
