It's always nice to be surfing the web and finding a photograph you took being used by someone else without permission or credit.

Not going to 'name and shame' them? (Much as I hate the origins of that phrase it fits the purpose)

I'll wait until I have some more feedback from the site about "how" it happened. I have screengrabs of course!

Cheeky feckers.

Or you could do what Getty Images do - send them a letter demanding a couple of thousand quid or they sue. Apparently a surprisingly large number of people pay up without question, they're that scared of Getty's lawyers.

Yeah - I think that'd be a waste of time in this case!

Getty Images stole your image?

Neat....

What again? Blimey you think they'd have heard of your wrath by now ;p

Start secreting giant robots who look like JPEGs on your webpages. A few incidents with giant death dealing robots should convince people to stop it.

So all your software is legal and all your programmes have been legally recorded? :-)
Before anyone says anything that doesn't of course mean that I condone any of these actions or nicking your photos either...

Aw come on, you're not surprised :) You could get old and bitter really fast chasing it all.
