quicksand
Have you ever seen? THIS picture? Yes, me too. Most pleased, as always, when I see where the pictures made by me are used by customers. Sometimes frowning. If it is simply used "gediebt. With the affordable licenses to use, it is incomprehensible that they are stolen. Annoyingly I personally find the simple misbehavior, not just first-time users to fragen.Bei some one would perhaps give them permission even free. Depending on the intended use.

appeared occasionally among photographers about stock agencies their images or their use licenses to offer for sale to the discussion of whether and how to know when a stolen their own images as used by any third party, such as in blogs, websites, or otherwise as Print. Neverending story here, the question of whether agencies should provide the photos provided with watermarks and whether they offer a guarantee against theft. Anyone reasonably familiar with PS, may flinch on this issue only with the shoulders. A missing watermark does of course anyway, unauthorized use prohibited. They will not accept, too, that you are in the pool and delightful garden of a villa or a Holiday cottage go there and spend the Sunday or even your holiday may only be because the fence can be climbed easily, right?
Well, there are some search features and tips on how to find
own pictures on the net, if from time to time looking for it. This may not ensure 100% searchability, but still offers a good hit rate it is quite. While friendly photographers or buddies and friends of different forums or communities that give each other the tip when they discover with by chance one of the pictures, brings some re-found his own pictures. How to deal with a problem then, is a personal issue, some of which not detach from legal aspects. Who works as a stock photographer deserves, not just money that he must eliminate from its own contractual reasons and to maintain its copyright illegal use. Whether a permit is the use, with or without pay for depends - among others - but also on whether and how the unauthorized user's behavior when he on his unauthorized use is affected, or - if necessary through the forum, his blog or his website etc - will be contacted. An insolent or snotty response to a friendly contact is not wise, especially when evidence required an amicable solution and not a warning by attorney is sent. On the other hand, may be associated with often only a teenager behind the blog, or whose parents behave sensibly and reasonably. And of course it is always important, for what purpose (non-commercial, commercial) or used in what context (unsolicited links to texts, themes, etc) of the "Images thief" the photo or illustration.
is not untypical especially for stock photography, the photographer regularly from the photo agency receives the notice of sales with the info, was sold to which image the license and redeemed at what level the fees, but only from a Aggenturen the roll-call Communication of the customer. Or that the customer (eg a web design company) used the image for a project of his own customers. So occasionally, the case that a re-discovered in the Net image to be used legally allowed. But the name of the user tells you nothing, because he was such a consumer. Or because the image was acquired in an agency in which the names of customers of the image are not named in the settlement or sale notification. Against this background, I personally am therefore always based on the theoretical possibility that the user is a customer. Accordingly, polite and friendly you ask him / her for the first time to state where the image was acquired.
A case is currently playing in front of me again. By far the most surprising re-discovery of one of my paintings for which I had not even sought. Where I discovered, and certainly not it. It shows in particular that image users are not even a chance, and without searching the author can be sure. I had searched namely music. On Youtube. A rather new title that fits so well to the daily fitness program to beat, rhythm and tempo. With a good mood-making melody. And under three, four from the very first album recently published by YouTube users uploaded videos found one with just that image of me as an illustration in the video stream. At this point you might now from the situation a great exam question make for law students or trainees.
photographer comes to you as a lawyer and want to know:
Can he do it?
What can he do?
he MUST do?
What should he do?
And: Against whom can and must do what?
How can he present when the account of the user on Youtube, as usual, no name or address data has?
And if he does nothing - could and if so, what claims could threaten the other way around it after the image is the latest song of a very prominent artist used as a video linked, if even the distribution of the song on Youtube would be of concern even legal? (Depending on the prominence of the artist could claim this kind HIMSELF more than peanuts ... the question is not as banal as possible at first sight).
must act as quickly or he can and may also connect with deadlines?
The above picture (and variations) are also legally permitted use. example here. to find more info .
The subject is not just for Valentine's Day and similar occasions. Also for the upcoming holiday season. How about, not even the Christmas holiday classic in the snow, to spend in the mountains or further away? But it is romantic for two at one of the islands in the Wadden Sea? Over Christmas and New Year there are still attractive and romantic offerings. And what would be more comfortable than cozy days of fantastic secluded beach walks - with or without a camera for a fascinating winter moods? - Frisian as comfortable days? On Langeoog be found for example offers for joint Golschmiedearbeiten, for example, wedding rings, which can be a romantic gift idea for Christmas and for anniversaries, not only for the first wedding rings or engagement rings. Even more ideas for summer days, for gifts and Leisure time activities in the winter the islands? A lot. Ask me just calm.
And how to make the gift, the journey can package the idea nicely as an invitation? Oh .... this Lütte Ambassador the protected as a UNESCO World Heritage Wadden Sea, this cuddly bear and other small messenger and I've got also a lot of bearish and other ideas and suggestions on how to search for the right Weihnachtsgeschnek not the case in the quicksand of anyway after Christmas back the exchanged item must be.
And as the present case - see above - and more will end? Well, then, in due time, the image user has already been asked nicely to the use of evidence and still has time to react. ;-) Now, you are allowed to ever solve the exam questions in secret for himself .... who knows, tomorrow you may ask your next client. If you like, of course comment on how it would quarrel. promised
