Title: StockXpert watermark
Post by: madelaide on October 12, 2010, 16:18

This watermarked image is a recent find in TinEye, unfortunately I can't see in the page of even inspecting its properties when this was uploaded, but geez... a StockXpert watermark?

They have other images that look like microstock, but no watermarks and TinEye did return any stock site when I searched for a couple of them.

I sent a comment to that website, asking them to purchase a legal license for that photo, madelaide, and posted a link to your photo on istock.

I have already written to them, I should have said so in the first message. Thanks for the help anyway.

I don't think it hurts for them to hear it from more than one source. I was very courteous and polite about it.  :)
