That sucks. Unfortunately everything posted on the internet if it's of any value gets stolen all the time. I've had entire site graphics stolen not to mention content. I don't remember the link but I think there is a site out there that allows you to report digital copyright infringements. Also, you can contact search engines like Google about it. They are pretty good in applying pressure on situations like this if the site is listed with their search engine and most people don't want to get banned from Google.

hello, My name is Dean and i need to apologise for using Bill Jemisons photo for my benefit.

I have emailed Bill himself, apologising greatly and sincerely for my actions and expressing the way i have experienced and learnt from that experience that i would never do something that stupid and disgraceful in my life again.
I sent Bill this email:
To Bill Jemison, i have commented to another of your fellow DP photographers expressing how i am greatly sorry and how i took advantage of your photograph, i must admit that i am a new photographer - or trying to be one and a young one at that, and i was overwhlemed by the comments i recieved from your work. I got too obsessed with recieving the comments, and i regret everything i have done. I will make a public apology and i know what i have done deserves no respect.. With my complete apology i have disgraced my self and have no one to turn to. Please i hope that one day i will be welcomed back (not expecting to) and seen for a person who does not take advantage of others. I know what i have done is the worst thing a person can do and i am feeling the emotions that come with having my name disgraced.
Sorry, i truely am sorry
never will anything like this ever happen again with me.
With my greatest reget
Dean

- i sent this too him, and thankfully we have made up and starting to get back in line. I am making this apologetic post, so others will know what i have done and that i am attempting to get back on the right path.

Sorry for the convieniece i have caused everyone.
I only ever took the one image from a different person, but that has caused so many holie in the community and disrespect which had cost me everything. Please forgive me - not right away but eventually.
Thankyou for listening
Dean

I rarely post anything to these forums. I'm a crappy photographer and rather not have my photos viewed :-)..but I had to chime in on this. I suggest that anybody who is interested in this recent controversy, re-read the entire thread.

I would ask that all who are reading this thread please see this thread and please read my post 1/2 way down page 2.

I find the overall response to Dave's apology to be not only revelatory, but quite disheartening in many places as well. Quite frankly, I expected better from this community.

Bill
