Thanks Dario. That's a nice thought to have attached to one of my photos. I'm pleased.

I've found that unauthorized use of my images has only helped me gain exposure. Frequently the unauthorized user provides at least a credit. I think that making images small and marred by copyright notices only hurts one' promotional efforts in the long run. But that's just my opinion. I do demand payment if one of my images appears in a medium that is obviously part of a commercial venture, but that's rare. Most pilfered images appear only in personal and non-profit sites or are used merely for comping. I also should point out that when an image is pilfered for ad comping purposes, it may well be purchased later. But if it's so small or disfigured that it can't be used for comping, the art director will pass it up. Here's an example of an unauthorized use of one of my photos that I just discovered. Not it has a credit. I didn't complain. I just smiled:

By the way, does anyone know what this site is all about? I assume the language is French?
