I have just today found out that some photos haven lifted off photoreflect. How are they doing it? If I right click on the pics it give me info that the photos are copyrighted and will not let me do anything else. How do I stop them. Iknow very little about these things.

They could just be doing a screen grab with the PrtScn button. Or using a cached copy of their hard drive.

Is there anyway to stop any of this other that put a watermark on it. I forgot to do that whe I down loaded the pics. Should I just ad ont with my logo. Or should I do one that like this I STOLE THIS PICTURE.

You can watermark if you wish. Reducing the physical size will help as well by reducing the quality.
The thing is that any picture on the web can be copied. A watermark will not stop Joe Average who wants it for Facebook or MySpace.

The problem with STOLEN FROM... it will say that on all the pictures on your site too.

I just put my url across the front of my pictures so when someone sees it on a racer's myspace of facebook they know where they got it from. There isn't really a way to stop someone from doing that, nor do I want to look like a jerk in the industry I work in by emailing them and asking them to take my photo off their myspace. Nobody is going to pay a premium to purchase a photo for this.

I know the stolen from was more of a joke. Normaly I charge for a myspace/facebook pic e-mailed to them at a non printable size. So Im screewed for stoping them from stealing.
