I am going on Saturday and I will hopefully have lots of pics when I return!![]()
I thanked VictoriaAndMatt over in Part 1, but I will thank her again here!![]()
I meant to say thank you in this thread last night, but I got distracted because I was trying to juggle several things at one time, one of which was discovering that someone stole a whole bunch of photos from one of my Facebook albums (like more than 120 photos and counting) and put them up on another website without my permission, without giving me credit and without even asking if it was okay to do it. Someone tipped me off to the fact that someone was using my pictures on two different websites. I am trying to now figure out a way to get this, um....person (and I am being G-rated here)...to take down the photos from his page, as he is claiming them to be HIS.People are evil, I tell you.
That is horrible!! Why would someone do that? Is he someone you were friends with on Facebook?
No. It's someone I have never heard of before. As far as I can tell, this idiot was a "friend of a friend" on FB. I had my FB settings adjusted so that friends of friends could view my albums. View my albums, not steal the photos from them.
Anyway, I have a bunch of old Bret Michaels/Poison pictures in my Facebook albums - like photos from 1985 and things like that. Of course, Bret is now famous and has been in the news quite a lot in the last year. I also have old pictures of other old Sunset Strip bands like Warrant and one of the guys who is in the band RATT, etc. All old, vintage stuff.
I shared these photos with my friends from back in the Sunset Strip days, and one of them starting tagging photos left and right. She must have drawn attention to my album with all of these pictures, and so this 'guy' who was on her friend list managed to upload about 126 of my photos (at last count; I am sure he added more) to a public website where they gossip about guys in those sorts of bands from 'back in the day,' as well as to his own album on Photobucket. He designs t-shirts, from what I could figure out, so he looks for photos to put on t-shirts.
So even though I have now blocked everyone from being able to view the album on my FB page (including my actual friends, which is sad), this fool has stolen all of my photos and put them on Photobucket, intending to do who-knows-what with them, so he can just post them wherever he wants and make money. And I am in many of these photos too - I don't want my face plastered all over these websites.
I'm trying to figure out how to stop this guy. I sent him a FB message, which he ignored, of course. As I said, people are just evil.![]()
Oh no!! That is AWFUL! Can you try to get in contact with the FB admin people or whatever? Someone who has the power to do something to him whether he responds or not. I'd also contact Photobucket's support and let them know the photos are stolen and need to be removed, etc. People really do suck sometimes. What a crap head.
I'm sorry to hear what happen on your FB Sherry.
It's a shame from people who try to steal pictures or other information on other people websites and put it on there websites and say that they did it themselves.
I'm really sorry to hear about your trouble, Sherry.
I had similar problems during my time as a wrestling fan - photos snagged, copied, sold... there's one picture that had 7 people claiming they took it.
That was before the days of Facebook though, so I'm afraid I won't be of any help there. My problem was Ebay, and thankfully they removed the listings when I reported them. Might be worth a try with Photobucket too.
That's the very reason I won't post any pictures online anymore that are large enough to reprint properly or use elsewhere.
On the MHP post, it would be good to put the times of the Cavalcade and the fireworks that Heather put on the blog... they can be changed if it changes...
Hopping aboard!

Thanks, Bret. It is a shame. Unfortunately, this guy saw a famous face in the pictures and just wanted to take my photos, probably figuring that there is not much I will do or can do to stop them. But some people have no morals or ethics or common courtesy - it is amazing, isn't it?
Sounds like a great idea!! The MHP post is actually a work in progress and it's going to be a general party information post - including overall info/facts about the yearly parties and not only the MHP. But in addition to the general info about the parties and what they have to offer, Liza will also have the details for this year's party.
I will there on the first night of MHP (Oct. 1st) and hope to give you much info I can. I will take as many pictures and videotaping when MHP starts at 5pm and possibly to closing time.
