Dear Mr. Watkins-Colwell,
Thank you for bringing this to our attention. The owner of the
reptilecity.econgo.com site
created his site and may, without our direct knowledge, have copied some
images from another
source. Our service for merchants, such as this client, is
"build-it-yourself".
If you can forward a specific list of these pictures on the site, I can
forward them
to the site owner for action. If you know the owner of the pics however,
maybe you could forward
contact info so that our client can license them.
Also, you mentioned a mail-link from their site to our sales director
([EMAIL PROTECTED]).
I looked for that and didn't find it. Can you please reply with the
location of that
link?
Thanks for your help,
Don Nordloff
Program Manager
