wtf.
Posted on Thursday, April 03, 2008
It's pissing me off that the world is treating Flickr like a free stock photography website. I googled myself today and found my photos all over the web.

These sites are on my shit list:

Cat Chit Chat - had the NERVE to write "copyright adam sullens" on the page featuring my photo of Spring's reflective eyes, but didn't even link to Flickr. Thank you for acknowledging that you stole my photo. Now take it down.

tomisima::tumblr - some site that also posts photos of naked women also felt it necessary to post my photo of Patch and Ginger from Tabby's Place.

Native Threads - Links to a Flickr search that listed my photo of Tuccamirgan's grave.

DeathGob - has posted my photos of slugs.

Zimbio.com - has posted photos of my tomato plants from last year.

blinkbits - has posted my photo of chocolate skittles.

Granted that some of these are automatically generated pages ... but (especially in the case of Cat Chit Chat) these people are knowingly stealing my photos. What the hell?! If people like my photos so much, they can pay me to use them. Otherwise, get them the hell off your sites.

UPDATE: Cat Chit Chat has removed my photo, at my request.
