One of the funniest ways I saw someone "get even" with someone who was linking 
to his site was substituting the photo on his site that was being used.  The 
new "photo" the person put up was a message that said something like "this 
auction is a fraud and you should not bid." Needless to say, the seller stopped 
linking to the site pretty quickly...

If your website is on an Apache web server, you can prevent people  
from "hotlinking" the photos directly from your site. See http:// 
altlab.com/htaccess_tutorial.html. Following the watermark theme,  
once you get your auction started, replace the photos with  
watermarked pics which include the auction number (and maybe your ID,  
if room).
