And the saddest part of all is that not only is this type of behavior dishonest to the max, but these people pose as such good, decent people. I've approached everyone that has stolen from me, but know that it will never stop. Thank you for giving all of us the heads up about this conning problem, for your Facebook message about someone who stole another photo of mine, and for your delicious recipes and super blog! Like Catherine stated above, it's the community of honest food bloggers that is the best thing about blogging . . . our friendships!

Maybe 10 years ago I saw this sort of thing happening in the needlework and craft industry. It really sent the industry in a tailspin, because people were copying leaflets and sending them to their "closest" 1,000 or so friends. It decimated the industry. Fortunately, the way you work is very different from those in print media. I hope you'll have better luck with weathering this storm.<br /><br />*hugs*Terinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067778895617200586.post-79101409982580906272012-07-20T15:16:41.243-04:002012-07-20T15:16:41.243-04:00There are all kinds out there.

The www is a scary place. <br />You're so right in that putting a watermark on the photo will help protect you. <br />I'm guilty of being able to do it but not taking the time to.

I've reported almost 150 so far. Like I have time for that. It's crazy. I think it's good you are watermarking now. So am I. Unfortunately they still seem to find ways around it. We live in a crazy world. If you ever want to vent feel free to get in touch. I know how infuriating it is. Big hug! xxKim Beehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01549774687334791659noreply@blogger.com
