its not like its featured .. they are using my car to sell their stuff .. without asking me .. would be nice to have been asked atleast .. or maybe sent some free shit lol ... if they want cars they should sponsor them ... or atleast pay fro the photos they jack ..

I agree, I thought they had it featured, and were using it in all aspects of their website, classifieds, front page, and the works. If its just to use your work to make people think that they did it...:guns:

all you need is the originals still stored on your mem card. because you can take them to court for this. anything that's posted on the internet is automatically copyrighted as long as you have the original working copy (.psd file for photoshop type stuff) so i'm assuming this applies to photos as well as long as u have the originals

itsalebaron
12-12-2002, 01:09 AM
yup i have the originals and already emailed the vice president of car/sound domain .. so we will see tomorrow thanks for the compliments guys .. i appreciate all the support ..I will let you know how it works out and what kind of copany this sound domain really is

Even though the pics of the car are relatively small, it was the color of the car that caught my eye.
