# because you could work at
the daily mail, metro, standard or emap or some other place that may have nicked my pics ?
I just checked my logs and that would seem to be the case - I had to block the above-listed companies.

# never said it was :)
just some of your colleagues at your sister title blatantly nicked one of my pics for an article on Russell Young - and they took the image of the photoshop not the screenprint.

# ooh, weird - but isn't the story ABOUT your pic?
i don't really understand. that article credits everything and everyone, lots and lots.

the MoS is shite, though.

edit: aaah, now i get it, after your explanation tweak. :) i'd forgotten the chronology of how that image came to be making huge sums of cash for someone that wasn't you.

# the story is about a screenprint of my 'shop
produced in different colours on a glitter canvas.
I have logs which show Associated coming to my site from a search and downloading the high resolution version of the image on which the print is based. No permission was asked.
And the credit for the superimposing is mistakenly given to Russell, not me.
I think the story also ran on thisislondon btw.
However, most of it seems lifted from The Sunday Times which ran a half page on it the previous week -They used the correct images of the prints on display, gave proper credits after spending sometime interviewing Russell, me and others.

# Every time this happens
Send an invoice. Double the usual freelance rate. Use moneyclaimonline to persue the money. That's my advice and I'm a lawyer*.
