Pixmac / Pixmac dubious contributor. Maybe stolen images...
« on: October 29, 2010, 17:19 »
I happened to be checking Pixmac and noticed that they have API software giving them access to Dreamstime and Fotolia databases which is fine if that's their agreement. Sure enough, my images from Dreamstine and Fotolia are there with my name given as the photographer.
However, there is a contributor there called 'colossus' with a portfolio of around 292,000 images and I see that at least 2 of my images are in that portfolio. That is in addition to my DT and FT images correctly attached to my DT and FT name.
Does anyone know how Pixmac works or is this potentially a 'stolen' portfolio.
The link is here. Check to see if any of yours are there too.
