Regarding the following website: //www.lxixixl.com

I haven't been around dpc alot of late, so didn't know if this has already been discussed, but I could not find anything about it in the forums.

I got a official notification from my webhost that the above mentioned website is stealing photographs from all over the web at an alarming rate. C&D notifications have been sent to them by my webhost for images taken from their domains, and have apparently been taken seriously.

It may be worth your time to check and see if you are among the stolen - there are 48 page of dpchallenge images:

They aren't really stealing them. They have them posted on their site with a link to DPC - and also give credit to the photographer. They have two of mine on there but I don't see the problem as they have a link posted back to here. I call it free advertising.

To each his (or her) own I suppose. My webhost calls it stealing since it is unauthorized use of images. Just thought a heads-up was in order for those who feel the same.

I am too much of an Arteeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeest to have my work stolen.

((or at least that is what I tell myself to make myself feel better on those cold unstolen nights)))))

BUT it was really nice of LindaLee to show us the link and think of us, so thank you
