HEY LOOKS JUST LIKE MY PHOTOS.....................

Must agree those pics look real familiar

 

Hey Paul, how many web sites do you count as using your photos as their own?:rolleyes:

 

Paul, did you take those personally? Just wondering? :fireman:

 

Ryan, Paul took them.

After he and I put the pics up (I have them on my server too) they started to pop up everywhere and people were taking credit for taking them.

 

I think my pictures are alot of places I don't know about. They have been viewed 75,000 times and downloaded 104 times.

 

Well then, we should go after those people! That is bad stealing things that aren't yours! :fireman:

 

Technically Paul, it is too late to prove without a shadow of a doubt that you DID take them. If you took them with a camera that uses film and you have the negatives, you have the credit. Otherwise digital formats make it impossible to track ownership or credit unless you inextricably photoshop "COPYRIGHT PAUL!!" all over the thing before it ever leaves your possesion. Your pics are undoubtedly headed to various international sites claiming to be the authority on toyota developments. I had a similar case when my webhost used a legal loophole to republish my pictures of an ancient muslim tomb in India.

The beauty of the internet is that so many people could see and benefit from the results of your work, but it becomes their property in the process.

I think the issue here is whether the gentleman poster from AZ intended to take credit for himself ( and expected no one on a Toyota BB would notice), if he simply wanted to pass on your images for "public good" without citing or taking credit, or if he simply belived that the images were "public domain" in the same way as the billions of mp3's out there, that DE-JURE are NOT public at all. Paul, I do believe the credit is yours, but personally I would like to hear from the poster. Technically he has not claimed credit.

 

Ok i herd alot of talk about the 03 4 runner and found the pic on the website that i gave .It is not my site .To tell the truth i don"t know how to make a web site . Plus i never seen paul's picture. i am new to this forum and if i pissed any one off i am SORRY. :pat:

 

No ones mad at you AZ.

Some on other sites even went as far as to say the pics were fake.
They are genuine.

I was reading in a mag. today, don't remember which one, but it said that 2 eng. will be offered, 1. a 5-speed automatic V-8 as an option and 2. a 4-speed automatic 4.0 V-6. It put the price at an estimate of 27k to 35k. No stick will be offered. It also claimed that it will be a very capable off-road vehicle. Looking forward to seeing it in person.
