Hi,

Only today I started looking for Possible use image, and in few minutes I detected more than 5 images used with agency watermark Being (That and I'm sure without an link to buy, so). Given that portfolios have around 200 ~ 300 images in various agencies, I think they are alarming numbers.

 I report to all agency's sites, like did direct contact with owner's sites. Some agency's Already That said image removal will ask for or buy.

 So my question is more Experienced Users: How Normally this end? Just image removal or get paid after all? It's better we contact site owner directly?

 One of agency's, with the big number of this unique 0 Situations is my agency's sales LOL. By email Likely something I said, "Oh, I Understand now how have so many views in some images, and none sales"

 I will give one example, because there is more images form other contributors

Maybe theres a client. All contacts end on same place:  http://www.linerit.com/

Maybe the test site is for their evaluation.

Now my concerns are about agency. Too many reports for one agency. My earnings there are "zero"...

For example, with other agency, I found one of my images in use, with agency watermark, but already sell "something"  ( and predict more sales ) over that image.

I wonder if it's actually a template and the template seller has pilfered the images?

Dunno. As newbie, i just report to agency and contact site admin/company.

So far:

123RF: No reply from support yet. All images already removed and had one reply from blog site owner saying that they remove the image ( confirmed )
Yaymicro: Many reply's so far, confirming that images will be removed, but they still online...
ShuttherStock : No reply from support neither from site.. This image is @ http://www.serenelli.it/

Thats with 200~300 images/portfolio ( and not a dream one LOL ) .... now i'm wondering with great and better portfolios.

And we're talking about "watermarked" images.

UPDATE

Send DMCA Notice of Copyright Infringement to hosting sites and act like a bomb with an sad exception : YaYmicro.

Too many images with yay logo being used for free for my personal taste, and to many time for removal.

My next step will be image removal from agency. Why? My theory is: If they can't get it free on YaY, they need "buy it" on another agency. 


EDIT:

It's fair change my opinion, because only after do some work by myself, i understand how hard can be to any agency ( without exception ) look for all image sleuth.

One site in particular, only after an DCMA for company, hosting servers, and a lot of emails discussing who's the blame and even printscreen of web page showing image abuse, i get it "down".   

BTW: there's any topic here ( or should exist ) to somehow show any sites using images from many agency's? Maybe would be interesatnt because, on my demand i see some other members works, from diferrent agency's.
