I think they have cause you personal and public humiliation by using your picture and midifying it to misrepresent a vehicle that is near and dear to your heart. The picture has cause you to be rediculed by your peers, causing loss of sleep and sexual disfunction. I'd say thats worth a few bucks.

HS!!! WAY TOOOO FUNNY!!!!

I think your truck will look much better with a Predator S&R bg. Like the one sitting in my garage.

Send an email telling them to cease & desist or enter a licensing agreement (probably some lump sum). If you get no response, or get blown off send a receive-receipt letter to their domain's admin contact with the same request, but asking more money "due to continued infringement." Mention the DMCA (Digital Millennium Copyright Act) in all correspondence with them. If the no response / blow-off continues, you can contact their ISP/host about carid.com hosting infringing content and file a "DMCA takedown notice." Being a geek and knowing the "system" is fun.

For someone with rims like that...


I'm betting this is pretty normal...

btw, you can ask them to cease & desist, and I'm sure they will, but if you actually DO want something out of it, I wouldn't recommend that direction. All they'll do is pull it down & give you nothing.

I run into this pretty often, I often google search terms that fit my photos to see where they're being used. It would cost most than it's worth to actually go after them, but generally you can squeeze a few $$ from them for what they did. Anyone with a brain knows the basics of copyright law, and they KNOW they did something illegal.

Try this with some of your photos. http://www.tineye.com/

Interesting site!

I sell a lot of pics on stock sites... usually if I find one someone took without permission, I then upload it to the sites... figure it's commercially viable if someone stole it. (sometimes the stock sites don't agree:sigh
