Second Brickshelf has this posted on each page towards the bottom in small
print "All Gallery content is property of the uploader, unless otherwise
stated." What they could do is put it at the top of tha page and make it
bigger, so there is no question the pic belongs to the person who made it. I
do not think everybody sees that at its current location and size.

Third I think there could be a 'contact' button in each folder, that way
people can easily contact the owner of the pics to get permission to use
them or whatever they need/want to do.

Just a few thoughts to slow the stealing of pics, but I think putting your
info ON the pic is the best solution, and can be done very easily.

While I HATE this idea the adms of brickshelf can add a small javascript
code that DISABLES the right-mouse click when you open up the .htm page with
the big image.  I've seen this on certain proffesional photographer
websites. It's a bit annoying but it works.

(...) If people have done this and copied images to another account ON the site, why can't Admins be informed and have offender's accounts/privledges removed? -Jeff (23 years ago, 16-May-02, to lugnet.publish, lugnet.general)

This is also becomming a problem over at BZCommunity.com - there are a few people over there who are stealing pics from brickshelf and re-naming them and putting them in their own folders on brickshelf.
