Looks like your buddy is using pictures of OTHER PEOPLE'S fish...

NOT COOL.

Your buddy should ask permission from each and every person that he took these pictures from AND give each and every person credit for borrowing their pictures.
He also took watermarks and names off of pictures...

Your buddies picture:

Davesfish ACTUAL fish...

That Rusty is from Nick Andreola, who supplies Davesfish.com with his Rusties!

That was one of just a horrible amount of pictures that I see are not your buddies fish.

I received a Private Message today from a good friend of ECC's. I am not sure if he wants to chime in but I am going to paste the letter that he sent out today:


I figured you knew a lot of the others who have images stolen and hosted there so this may help them out some.

Thanks for the info. Let the folks whose photos that have been nabbed deal with this issue. It is a serious matter to be taken up with those involved.

If anyone wants to start a post in the Photography section concerning copyright infringements go ahead. This topic is now closed.
