Hmmm. I'd say the whole thing was just sort of bungled from the PDML
side. The photographer always retains all rights unless otherwise
indicated. Anyone who has ever sold a photo or even displayed a photo
must know that. It's as obvious as the nose on your face.

been used".
The whole thing was just sort of bungled from the Pentax side...

Point taken,
But why then is any size image copyrighted?
I just have to say this one more time... it's not that a nefarious
purpose was suspected... it's that having a little pride in my
images, I'd like to know exactly what their terms of use is,
especially given that I can expect zero compensation... and for the
last time I'll belabor it, if this was all spelled out up front in
an official manner, any worry, doubt, suspicion, would have been
avoided.
Tom, the terms of use were spelled out.
