I don’t even want to know if my images are out there on other sites.

I know! I mean, if I was going to steal someone’s photo to try and sell something, I’d try and choose one that made the product look like it actually works!

Its ironic isn’t it, that not only are these people so stupid as to steal yourimages in the first place, but actually they steal them to try and sella product that is rubbish (I actually feel that way about the entire Soap and Glory range, butI digress).

I really hope you find a way to sort this, it must be so bloody frustrating!

It really is getting out of hand. I thought I’d watermarked all of the images, but obviously not. I’m also considering getting rid of my Flickr account – so far none of the stolen images have come from there (or not that I know about, anyway!), they’re all from Google images, but I kind of feel like the fewer places my images are available, the better!

I know! Every time I write about this stuff I think this is going to be the time when everyone just goes, “Nah, you’re making it up now – you HAVE to be!” Stranger than fiction

It’s disturbing that so many of your personal images can be stolen and used – maybe without your knowledge! It’s getting out of hand!

Haha, don’t worry, I knew what you meant! I can’t believe it either, to be honest!

Oh, and I don’t mean that I don’t believe you. I just can’t believe the nerve of some people!

I don’t believe this. Have you considered a second career as an eBay model? There’s evidently a market there for pictures of you.

I actually had this happen to me last week. Some Chinese auction site was using pictures of my hands from a nail polish review I did. I only found it because they were hotlinking me. Fortunately, that was simple to fix; I just changed the image they were hotlinking to one that said “We steal bandwidth!” in English and Chinese. (Well, it was babelfished Chinese. It was probably a terrible translation.)

You couldn’t make this up, could you?
