There is an unwanted space in the link. Use this one:

That is very interesting! I recognized some of them too.

I... recognise that 4th doggie in the 3rd panel... but I can't remember from where! Dammit, now I'm going to be nuts until I can figure out who it is. >_<

Is it a fluffy? There is a fluffy that looks like it could be Shippo from here?

One of those looks like a John Wolff photo, the tri in the flowers. And one of them on the lower right corner of a tri looking to the left, is the image that always comes up on google if you search images for Corgi. Hmmmm.

I recognized 5 of the pictures. (not mine)

Hm, something must be done about this.

I recognize 4 of the pictures, I don't know if I've seen them here or not, but I know I've seen them somewhere. This is crazy! The owners of these photos definitely need to step up on this.

EDIT: I just googled "corgi" and found two of the pictures. The tri on the last one (on the bottom right), and oddly enough, I found one and then found another that had been flipped so it was facing the other way. I also found the one of the red/white in the flowers.

I guess I'll start watermarking all my photos from now on. Don't these people know about copyright infringements? I guess I'm more aware of this kind of behavior, since I am a professional photographer.

I do recognize some and it really frustrates me that someone is doing that. It is so common that other people steal pictures or drawings from other people and don't even ask if they can use them.

None are mine, but the tri on the lower-right is Julia's avatar. I'll tell her. Welcome to the real world, kid!

This is why you should always minimize the image and file sizes when you post photos.
They don't need to be more than, ?? maybe 50 kb to post on the web? People can still steal and repost them, but they can't print them very well, and it really makes these webpages load faster.

How do you watermark digital photos? Is that a standard feature on many photoeditors?

Al & Gwynn feel miffed, slighted. How come they didn't steal *their* photos? I think their photos are pretty nice. They'd look good on somebody's pirated merchandise. Al & Gwynn just want to be famous, they don't care about intellectual property rights. Heck, their copy of Photoshop might even be illegal for all I know. Never turn your back on a hungry corgi.

he he he.... here's a simple watermark: plaster the picture with text in the middle, then adjust the opacity.

For those who are curious if anyone used your image without you knowing, TinEye can reverse search images by uploading the image or via a url.
